Abstract excerpt
Fifty microsatellite markers were developed and characterized in Pinus radiata, and from among these, a subset of 10 easily scored and highly polymorphic markers was selected for use in fingerprinting, quality control, and breeding applications. The markers were characterized based on reliable and reproducible amplification, observed and expected heterozygosities, number of alleles, a low frequency of null...
