Abstract

AbstractEight polymorphic microsatellites were developed in the perennial herbaceous Aster amellus L. (Asteraceae) and characterized on three populations from France and Switzerland. The number of alleles ranged between four and 30 depending on the locus, and the mean number of effective alleles was 5.8. The average gene diversity equalled 0.744 (range: 0.419–0.957) and the overall differentiation was found significant (θ = 0.092, P < 0.01). Three loci displayed significant heterozygote deficiencies, which might indicate the presence of null alleles. Amplifications were detected on eight loci in Aster alpinus L.
