| Abstract: | Twenty‐four and 12 microsatellite loci were developed in peach [Prunus persica (L) Batsch cv. Akatsuki] by using an enriched genomic and fruit cDNA libraries, respectively. The microsatellite loci obtained from an enriched library produced 1–9 alleles per locus, 24 in total, of which 22 showed polymorphisms. The average values of observed and expected heterozygosities among the 24 loci were 0.15 and 0.68, respectively. The microsatellite loci derived from cDNA showed 1–7 alleles per locus. Eight sequences showed significant homology to the registered genes in a database. |
