Abstract
Ruppia maritima L. (Ruppiaceae), a monoecious seagrass, is widely distributed in temperate and tropical regions. In this paper, we reported ten polymorphic microsatellite loci developed for this species. The number of alleles per locus ranged from 2 to 7, and the expected heterozygosity ranged from 0.240 to 0.701. No locus pair showed significant linkage disequilibrium. These polymorphic SSR primers will be useful in population genetic studies and clone identification of R. maritima L.
