Genomic and EST microsatellite markers for Aquilegia flabellata and cross-amplification in A. oxysepala (Ranunculaceae).

Premise Of The Study: The goal of this study was to identify genomic and expressed sequence tag (EST)-derived microsatellite markers from the species Aquilegia flabellata and assess their transferability in A. oxysepala.

Methods And Results: Eleven genomic and nine EST-derived microsatellite loci were characterized in A.
