Abstract

We developed 11 polymorphic microsatellite markers for Spergularia media (Caryophyllaceae), a perennial halophyte of coastal salt meadows and continental areas of western Eurasia. The number of alleles per locus observed in a single population of 20 individuals from the German North Sea coast ranged from 3 to 20. Observed and expected heterozygosities ranged from 0.200 to 0.850 and from 0.278 to 0.936 respectively. Observed heterozygosities were lower than expected heterozygosities at all loci, presumably as a consequence of inbreeding. All markers cross-amplified in the closely related S. salina. Of these, nine were polymorphic in the heterologous species. Only two primer pairs generated PCR products in S. diandra.
