Molecular markers, due to their stability, cost-effectiveness and ease of use provide an
immensely popular tool for a variety of applications including genome map**, gene …

Genoty** studies of medically important fungi have addressed elucidation of outbreaks,
nosocomial transmissions, infection routes, and genotype-phenotype correlations, of which …

Microsatellites, also known as simple sequence repeats (SSRs), are among the most
commonly used marker types in evolutionary and ecological studies. Next Generation …

Coconut (Cocos nucifera L.) is an important economic crop in tropical countries. However,
the lack of a complete reference genome and the limitations of usable DNA markers hinder …

Tandem repeats are periodic segments in the DNA. They play an important role in forensics,
tracing population evolution, genetic disorders and so on. Locating them in long DNA …

Gene based microsatellite markers are becoming more popular as compared to traditional
random genomic microsatellite markers due to rapid and inexpensive method of isolation …

Background Microsatellites are highly polymorphic repeat sequences ubiquitously
interspersed throughout almost all genomes which are widely used as powerful molecular …

Improved population studies in the fungus Fusarium verticillioides require the development
of reliable microsatellite markers. Here we report a set of ten microsatellite loci that can be …

Abstract Sago palm (Metroxylon sagu Rottb.) is one of the most productive carbohydrate-
producing crops. Unfortunately, only limited information regarding sago palm genetics is …

Background Tandem repeats are specific sequences in genomic DNA repeated in tandem
that are present in all organisms. Among the subcategories of TRs we have Satellite repeats …
