abstract = {Premise of the study: Microsatellite primers were developed for the 

endemic Chilean tree Quillaja saponaria (Quillajaceae), a common member 

of the sclerophyllous Mediterranean forest, to investigate intraspecific 

patterns of genetic diversity and structure. 

Methods and Results: Using an enriched library, 12 polymorphic 

microsatellite loci were developed in Q. saponaria. All loci consisted 

of dinucleotide repeats. The average number of alleles per locus was 5.3 

(2-13), with a total of 64 alleles recorded in 39 individuals from three 

populations. 

Conclusions: The microsatellite markers described here are the first 

characterized for Q. saponaria. The polymorphic loci will be useful in 

studies of genetic diversity and genetic population differentiation in 

natural populations of this species.},
