Development characterization and cross‐amplification of microsatellite markers for Psammosilene tunicoides (Caryophyllaceae)

摘要

Premise of the Study Psammosilene tunicoides (Caryophyllaceae) is a narrowly distributed and endemic plant species in southwestern China. The overexploitation of natural P. tunicoides has led to the destruction of many populations. Population and genetic studies will provide crucial data for the protection and management of P. tunicoides. In this study, we develop simple sequence repeat markers of P. tunicoides to analyze population diversity.
