| Abstract: | Primer sequences for 16 microsatellite loci were developed from Schizolobium parahyba, a tropical tree species. Twelve loci were found to be polymorphic after screening diversity in individuals from Belize. A total of 39 alleles were found at nine loci. The markers are invaluable tools for studying the population genetics and mating system of the species. |
