Abstract:
• Premise of the study : Microsatellite primers were developed for Aulonemia aristulata , an endangered species of economic interest, to further describe its genetic variability and population structure. We also tested cross‐amplification in 18 other bamboo species. • Methods and Results : Using an enrichment genomic library, 13 microsatellite loci were isolated and characterized in A. aristulata . Seven of these loci were polymorphic. Twelve markers were cross‐amplified in at least ten of the tested bamboo species. • Conclusions : These markers will be useful for studies on the genetic diversity and structure of A. aristulata , which are important for future conservation, management and breeding programs of this species.
