Microsatellite markers for studies with the carnivorous plant Philcoxia minensis (Plantaginaceae).

Premise Of The Study: Microsatellite markers were developed for the critically endangered carnivorous species Philcoxia minensis (Plantaginaceae) for further population genetic studies aiming at its conservation.

Methods And Results: We identified 29 clones containing 40 microsatellites from a genomic enriched library. A total of 27 primer pairs were developed and evaluated in 30 individuals of a natural P.
