H. Steinkellner et al., IDENTIFICATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF (GA CT)(N)-MICROSATELLITE LOCIFROM QUERCUS-PETRAEA/, Plant molecular biology, 33(6), 1997, pp. 1093-1096
In this study a size selected genomic library from Quercus petraea was
screened for (GA/CT)(n)-microsatellite sequences. The resulting loci
were analysed by PCR for their usefulness as molecular markers in e. p
etraea and Q. robur. 17 out Of 52 tested primer pairs resulted in the
amplification of a polymorphic single-locus pattern. The number of all
eles found per locus varied from 6 to 16. Combining the genetic variat
ion observed for the characterized loci provides a unique genotype for
all the individuals tested. Using intraspecific controlled crosses of
e. robur trees Mendelian inheritance could be shown for five loci.
