An enriched genomic library was constructed and 9 novel polymorphic tetranucleotide microsatellite markers developed for Austrocedrus chilensis, the most economically important native conifer in the Andean Patagonian region. Polymorphism was investigated for these markers in 48 individuals from two populations. Numbers of alleles ranged from 3 to 19 and levels of observed heterozygosity among the 9 loci ranged from 0.32 to 0.95. No locus combinations exhibited linkage disequilibrium. These polymorphic markers will be useful tools for the study of demography and gene flow and more in general for population and conservation genetics of this species.

Objective: The ghost crab Ocypode stimpsoni (Decapoda) is designated as a protected marine species in Korea due to its declining population. In this study, we successfully identified 17 microsatellite markers for O. stimpsoni through next-generation sequencing.

The largemouth bronze gudgeon (Coreius guichenoti), an endemic fish species, is distributed in the upper Yangtze River drainage. Due to anthropogenetic factors such as water pollution, overfishing, and dam construction, the wild populations of C. guichenoti have dramatically declined in recent decades.

is a fast-growing leguminous tree that is widely cultivated in tropical areas such as Indonesia, Malaysia, Australia, and southern China. This tree has versatile utility in timber, furniture, and pulp production. Illumina sequencing of was conducted, and the raw data of 124,410,892 reads were filtered and assembled into 93,317 unigenes, with a total of 84,411,793 bases.

Sago plant ( Rottb.) is one of the most carbohydrate-producing plants in the world. Microsatellites or simple sequence repeats (SSRs) play an important role in the genome and are used extensively compared to other molecular markers.
