Abstract
Abstract Ampelomyces spp. are common intracellular mycoparasites of powdery mildews worldwide and a strain has been commercialized as a biocontrol agent against these plant pathogens. In light of recent genetic analyses revealing high internal transcribed spacer sequence variability among Ampelomyces strains on different host plant mildews, yet no sequence variability within the Malus strain, polymorphic microsatellites were required to permit biocontrol and ecological studies of the complex apple/apple mildew/Ampellomyces tritrophic interaction. For this purpose, described here are the primers to amplify six polymorphic microsatellite loci from Ampelomyces quisqualis isolated from mycelia of the apple powdery mildew fungus, Podosphaera leucotricha.
