Abstract: | We isolated 13 microsatellite loci from Euchresta japonica, an endangered shrub species that grows in warm-temperate forests in East Asia. Of these 13 loci, only one was codominant and polymorphic with five alleles. Cross-species amplification in a related species, E. formosana, detected nine of these loci, all of which were codominant and polymorphic with 2 to 9 alleles. These markers will facilitate further studies on the genetic characteristics of these two Euchresta species. |
