Fiasco Protocol

Nine microsatellite loci were isolated from Primula obconica using the FIASCO protocol. We used 30 individuals from three populations for the assessment of microsatellite variation. Seven loci were detected with microsatellite polymorphism. The number of alleles per locus ranged from three to seven. The average observed heterozygosity and expected heterozygosity ranged from 0.167 to 0.6 and from 0.409 to 0.653, respectively. These microsatellite markers will be useful to assess the genetic variation and genetic structure of P. obconica.

Ten polymorphic microsatellite loci were isolated and characterized from an enriched genomic library of Paphiopedilum concolor (Batem.) Pfitzer. The number of alleles per microsatellite locus ranged from three to 11 with an average of 6.4 in a sample of 30 individuals from three populations. The observed and expected heterozygosity ranged from 0.200 to 0.800 and from 0.544 to 0.827, respectively. These microsatellites can be used as tools to investigate the genetic structure of P. concolor populations and relationship patterns with closely related taxa.

We isolated 15 and 18 highly polymorphic genomic microsatellite markers from two subterranean termites, Reticulitermes aculabialis and R. labralis, respectively. A total of 53 alleles were detected in 15 microsatellite loci of R. aculabialis, and the alleles were 3.533±1.302 (mean±SD), while the corresponding data of R. labralis were 115 detected alleles in 18 microsatellite loci with 6.389±1.754 alleles. The observed and expected heterozygosity was 0.496±0.236 and 0.564±0.125 in R. aculabialis, and 0.368±0.263 and 0.702±0.115 in R. labralis, respectively. Seven loci were highly polymorphic (PIC>0.5) in R. aculabialis, and 15 loci were highly polymorphic (PIC>0.5) in R. labralis. All loci showed Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium. These polymorphic markers provide useful tools for population genetic and breeding system studies of subterranean termites.

Megalobrama pellegrini is one of the economically important freshwater fish in China. Here, we developed 29 polymorphic microsatellite loci of M. pellegrini. The number of alleles (Na), effective number of alleles (Ne), observed heterozygosity (HO), expected heterozygosity (HE) and polymorphic information content (PIC) ranged from 3 to 11 (mean±SD 5.4828±1.9571), 2.8708 to 9.6257 (mean±SD 5.0865±1.6681), 0.4333 to 0.9333 (mean±SD 0.7874±0.1213), 0.6627 to 0.9113 (mean±SD 0.7946±0.0751) and 0.5785 to 0.8868 (mean±SD 0.7439±0.0950), respectively. Cross-species amplification was successful at most loci for related species such as M. amblycephala, M. hoffmanni, M. skolkovii and Parabramis pekinensis. The transferability rate of the 29 polymorphic microsatellite markers in M. amblycephala, M. hoffmanni, M. skolkovii and P. pekinensis were 96.55%, 86.21%, 86.21% and 75.86%, respectively. These polymorphic microsatellites are not only useful in genetic study and conservation of M. pellegrini, but also an effective tool for identifying the related species. We could use 5 microsatellite markers (HHF-63, HHF-104, HHF-113, HHF-148, HHF-163) to distinguish the 5 species.

Polymorphic Microsatellite

By using a modified biotin-streptavidin capturing method, a total of 20 polymorphic microsatellite markers were developed from Moringa oleifera Lam. (Moringaceae), a useful multipurpose tree. Twenty-four domesticated individuals, with germplasms of India and Myanmar, were used to screen polymorphism of these 20 microsatellite markers. The number of alleles per locus ranged from two to six. The expected and observed heterozygosity varied from 0.3608 to 0.7606 and from 0.0000 to 0.8750, respectively. Seven loci were significantly deviated from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. The availability of these microsatellite primers would provide a powerful tool for aspects of detailed population genetic studies of M. oleifera.

Identification And Characterization

AbstractThe southern harvester termite, Microhodotermes viator, is ecologically important due to its nutrient cycling activities and trophic interactions. Additionally, M. viator appears to have very long-lived colonies, which amplifies their effect on the environment. In order to estimate the longevity of a colony it is necessary to understand colony genetic structure. However, intra- and intercolonial genetic structure and levels of relatedness have not yet been examined in this species, likely due to a lack of microsatellite markers that effectively hybridize in this species. Here we describe the identification and characterization of seven microsatellite loci for M. viator, using an enriched approach and a preliminary test of their suitability for studies of fine-scale population genetic structure. Seven polymorphic loci were identified, none of which deviated from Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium. The loci had an average of 5.8 alleles per locus (range: 2–14) and an overall mean heterozygosity of 0.51 ± 0.3. Across all loci, population level pairwise FST values showed significant genetic differentiation. The loci described and preliminary genetic data presented here provide an invaluable tool for future studies of population structure and longevity in M. viator colonies.

To assess cross-species amplification, we tested 38 microsatellite loci previously developed for Rhododendron delavayi Franch. and R. decorum Franch. in eight species representative of the genus Rhododendron. Sixteen pairs can be amplified successfully in all species, whereas two failed amplification in all species. Nine loci were polymorphic across six examined species with one to 11 alleles per locus. The observed and expected heterozygosity per locus varied from 0.07 to 0.65 and 0.44 to 0.81, respectively. Cross-application of these microsatellite loci will provide a potentially useful tool to investigate the genetic structure, gene flow, and evolutionary relationships in genus Rhododendron.

Abstract Clonal reproduction of lianas is a common but important life history strategy. It is necessary to evaluate the clonal structure of liana species because clonal ability is potentially a major determinants distribution pattern of lianas. Therefore, we developed 10 microsatellite markers for Euonymus fortunei and Schizophragma hydrangeoides respectively from genomic sequences obtained from double-digest restriction site associated DNA (ddRAD). The sequence data of the developed markers were deposited on the public database. The expected heterozygosity (HE) of E. fortunei and S. hydrangeoides ranged from 0.727 to 0.847 with an average of 0.766, and from 0.734 to 0.924 with an average of 0.812, respectively. All loci were under HWE except for a locus of S. hydrangeoides (sh07). These markers should contribute to the understanding of the life history of temperate liana species.

Pedicularis rex C. B. Clarke ex Maxim., an endemic species with potential horticultural traits from Himalaya, has a unique cup-like petiole structure and highly infraspecific floral variation among members of the lousewort genus (Orobanchaceae). We developed 13 microsatellite markers from three microsatellite-enriched libraries (AG, AC, and AAG) of P. rex with a modified biotin–streptavidin capture technique. Polymorphism of each locus was assessed in 22 individuals with representation of five populations of P. rex. Number of alleles per locus (A) ranged from two to seven with an average of 4.38. The observed and expected heterozygosities varied from 0.03 to 0.86 and 0.45 to 0.84, respectively. Additionally, among the 13 identified microsatellite markers, 11 of them were successfully amplified in species P. thamnophila, and five of them showed polymorphisms. This study may provide important information for further investigation on the population genetics, introduction, and acclimatization of P. rex and its congeners.
