Abstract excerpt
Limonium narbonense Miller is a fertile tetraploid species with a sporophytic self-incompatibility system. This sea lavender is found in coastal salt marshes which have been under intense human pressure during the past decades resulting in significant habitat fragmentation. Eleven microsatellite loci specifically designed for this species were amplified in 135 individuals from five populations. These markers were...
