Abstract:The review discusses trends in using of microsatellite markers for evaluation of the genetic diversity in European spruce populations. A brief historical outline of SSR marker appearance, development and using for population genetic studies of spruce species is given. The characteristics of groups of the most frequently used microsatellite markers of spruce are recited. The principles of the development of microsatellite multiplexes are described. The published multiplexes of microsatellite markers proposed fo… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
