Development and characterization of microsatellite markers for diploid populations of the wind-pollinated herb Mercurialis annua

Abstract Objective Mercurialis annua is a wind-pollinated annual plant that has long been used as a model for the study of ploidy and sexual-systems evolution. However, no molecular markers are yet available for genetic studies of its diploid populations. Here, we develop and characterize a set of e...
