Abstract

Eleven microsatellite loci have been developed from Fagus longipetiolata and the loci were characterized for 21 individuals. All eleven loci were polymorphic, with 2-8 alleles and an average of 4.8 per locus. The observed (HO) and expected (HE) heterozygosities were 0.053-0.714 and 0.355-0.856, respectively. There was significant deviation from Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium at two loci. No locus pair had significant linkage disequilibrium. Cross-species amplifications of the markers were also tested in three other congeneric species.
