Microsatellite markers for the endangered Puya raimondii in Peru.

ABSTRACT: Premise:Microsatellite primers were developed for Puya raimondii (Bromeliaceae), an endangered species distributed in the Andean Mountains of Bolivia and Peru. Methods and Results:Genome skimming of P. raimondii, P. macrura, and P. hutchisonii resulted in the selection of 46 pairs of cross-species microsatellite markers. Of these, 12 microsatellite primer pairs produced clear and polymorphic bands in P. raimondii. These primer sets were then used for the detection of potential polymorphisms in 84 P. raimondii individuals collected from four populations in Peru. The number of alleles per locus ranged from one to six, and the observed and expected levels of heterozygosity ranged from 0.000 to 0.8929 and from 0.000 to 0.7662, respectively. Conclusions:The microsatellite markers developed in this study will be useful for future population genetic analyses and breeding system studies in P. raimondii.

Development of chloroplast microsatellite markers for the endangered Maianthemum bicolor (Asparagaceae s.l.).

Project description:PREMISE OF THE STUDY:Ten polymorphic chloroplast microsatellite (cpSSR) markers were developed and characterized in an endemic and endangered herb, Maianthemum bicolor (Asparagaceae s.l.), for use in conservation genetics. METHODS AND RESULTS:Primer sets flanking each of the 10 cpSSR loci in noncoding regions of the chloroplast genome of M. bicolor were designed. These cpSSR markers were tested on a total of 33 adult individuals from three natural populations in South Korea. The number of alleles per locus ranged from two to three. The unbiased haplotype diversity per locus ranged from 0.061 to 0.682. All markers were successfully transferred to the congeneric species M. japonicum, M. bifolium, and M. dilatatum with polymorphisms among the species. CONCLUSIONS:The developed cpSSR markers will be useful in assessing the genetic diversity and population structure of M. bicolor and will help to infer its molecular identification, thereby providing a basis for conservation.

Characterization of microsatellite markers for the endangered Daphne rodriguezii (Thymelaeaceae) and related species.

Project description:Premise:The endangered shrub Daphne rodriguezii (Thymelaeaceae) is endemic to the Balearic island of Menorca, where fragmentation and severe population decline are ongoing threats to this taxon. We developed a set of microsatellite markers to analyze the fine-scale genetics of its few extant populations. Methods and Results:Fifteen microsatellite markers were obtained through Illumina high-throughput sequencing and tested in two populations. Twelve of these loci showed no evidence of null alleles and were highly polymorphic, with a mean number of 8.3 alleles per locus. Levels of observed and expected heterozygosity ranged from 0.100 to 0.952 and from 0.095 to 0.854, respectively. Seven to nine of these loci were successfully amplified in five other Daphne species. Conclusions:This set of markers provides a useful tool for investigating the factors driving fine-scale population structure in this threatened species, and it represents a novel genetic resource for other European Daphne species.

Project description:Thirty-one microsatellite markers were developed for Sinocalycanthus chinensis (Calycanthaceae), an endemic endangered species in China. Twenty-one polymorphic and 10 monomorphic microsatellite markers of S. chinensis were developed using methods of biotin-streptavidin capture and capillary electrophoresis. The number of alleles per locus was one to 20 with an average of 4.677 in 90 individuals taken from two populations in Zhejiang Province and one population in Anhui Province in China. Mean observed and expected heterozygosity across all three populations were 0.403 ± 0.061 (0.033-1.000 per locus) and 0.510 ± 0.043 (0.032-0.797 per locus), respectively. Of these 31 loci, 29 were successfully amplified in Calycanthus floridus. These microsatellite markers will be useful for studies of population genetic diversity and phylogeny of S. chinensis and C. floridus.

Fifteen microsatellite markers for Herbertia zebrina (Iridaceae): An endangered species from South American grasslands.

Project description:PREMISE OF THE STUDY:Polymorphic microsatellite loci were developed and used to genotype individuals of Herbertia zebrina (Iridaceae) as a first step for assessment of intraspecific genetic diversity. METHODS AND RESULTS:Primer pairs for 47 markers were developed: 20 from a microsatellite-enriched library and 27 from a next-generation sequencing run using the Illumina MiSeq platform. Of those, 15 loci were considered successful, of which 12 were polymorphic and three were monomorphic. The primers were tested in 50 individuals from three populations of H. zebrina. Two to 14 alleles per locus were identified, and observed and expected heterozygosity were 0.00-0.95 and 0.18-0.89, respectively. Tests of cross-amplification to evaluate the applicability of these markers showed positive results in one congeneric species, H. darwinii, and in a phylogenetically closely related species, Calydorea crocoides. CONCLUSIONS:These microsatellite markers can be used for studies of genetic variation and genetic population structure, as well as to support conservation efforts.

Project description:PREMISE OF THE STUDY:Microsatellite markers were developed for Garcinia paucinervis (Clusiaceae), an endangered and endemic tree species of karst habitats, to analyze its genetic diversity and genetic structure. METHODS AND RESULTS:Using shotgun sequencing on an Illumina MiSeq platform, a total of 22 microsatellite primer sets were characterized, of which 17 were identified as polymorphic. For these polymorphic loci, the total number of alleles per locus ranged from two to 12 across 54 individuals from three populations. The observed and expected heterozygosities ranged from 0.000 to 1.000 and from 0.000 to 0.850, respectively. No pair of loci showed significant linkage disequilibrium. Three loci in one population deviated significantly from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (P < 0.05). Seven loci (JSL3, JSL5, JSL22, JSL29, JSL32, JSL39, and JSL43) were successfully amplified in G. bracteata. CONCLUSIONS:These markers will be useful in studies on genetic diversity and population structure of G. paucinervis.
