Abstract
We present characteristics of eight microsatellite loci isolated from Minquartia guianensis Aubl (Olacaceae), an ecological and economically important forest tree species from Central and South America. Polymorphism was tested in two natural populations detecting 2 to 18 alleles per locus. The expected heterozygosities (HE) range from 0.313 to 0.903. Linkage disequilibrium was found only at two locus combination in one population. High exclusion probability was estimated. These markers turn to be useful for population genetics and gene flow studies in this threatened timber species from the Neotropics.
