Microsatellites for genetic studies and breeding programs in common bean

Microssatélites para estudos genéticos e programas de melhoramento em feijoeiro

Twenty microsatelitte loci were identified and characterized in common bean. Microsatellites were tested in 14 genotypes. The allele number ranged from 1 to 3, and the polymorphism information content (PIC) was between 0.14 and 0.65. These polymorphic markers are available to be used for breeding programs.

Phaseolus vulgaris; SSR; molecular markers
