Abstract excerpt
As part of our study on the phylogeography of the ant-plant genus Macaranga, we have screened for polymorphic regions in the chloroplast genome. Initially, ten universal PCR primer pairs targeted at chloroplast microsatellite loci were applied to a small set of specimens, covering various taxonomic levels from intrafamilial to intraspecific. Eight primer pairs produced PCR fragments that behaved as single and...
