“…H. rhamnoides has high ecological, medicinal and economic value (Bal et al, 2011; Dhyani et al, 2011; Jadhav, 2014; Kortesniemi et al., 2017; Suryakumar & Gupta, 2011), and thus has attracted an abundance of research on breeding, systematics, biochemistry and genetics (Bartish, 2016). Previous studies have developed SSR markers for sea buckthorn from enriched genomic libraries (Islam et al, 2015; Wang et al., 2008) and transcriptome sequences (Jain et al., 2014; Li et al, 2020; Li, Ruan, et al, 2017; Li, Zeng, et al., 2017; Xie et al., 2017). Few has discussed the usage of SSR markers on sea buckthorn phylogenetic analysis and/or breeding programme.…”
