چکیده
UNLABELLED PREMISE OF THE STUDY A set of microsatellite markers were developed to characterize the level of genetic diversity and gene flow in two plant species endemic to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, Spiraea alpina and S. mongolica. • METHODS AND RESULTS Using the Fast Isolation by AFLP of Sequences COntaining repeats (FIASCO) method, 16 microsatellite loci showed polymorphisms in both species. In two populations of each species, the number of alleles per locus ranged from three to 18 in S. alpina and from four to 30 in S. mongolica. • CONCLUSIONS These microsatellite markers provide an efficient tool for population genetic studies and will be used to assess the genetic diversity and spatial genetic structure of S. alpina and S. mongolica.

PREMISE OF THE STUDY Saxifraga egregia (Saxifragaceae) is a perennial herb that is endemic to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. We developed 12 polymorphic microsatellite loci for S. egregia to investigate its population genetics. METHODS AND RESULTS Forty-eight pairs of microsatellite primers (including 36 monomorphic loci) were isolated and characterized by magnetic bead enrichment. Twelve of thes...

In order to have a sustainable management on Persian sturgeon as a highly commercial species in the South Caspian Sea, we need to identify its population structure and the level as well as its conservation status in their natural habitat. To develop a conservation program for this all Caspian Sea' sturgeon species it requires knowledge of its genetic diversity using reliable molecular marker t...

The phytochemical investigation of the methanol extract from the twigs of Spiraea prunifolia var. simpliciflora (Rosaceae) using column chromatography led to the isolation of a new phenol glycoside, 1-O-(E)-caffeoyl-2-O-p-(E)-coumaroyl-β-D-glucopyranose (1), together with 16 known phenolic compounds (2-17). The structure of this new compound was elucidated by analysis of spectroscopic data incl...

PREMISE OF THE STUDY Transcriptomes were used to develop microsatellite markers for the plant genus Orinus (Poaceae), which comprises three species of grasses (O. thoroldii, O. kokonoricus, and O. intermedius) that are widely distributed in the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau. METHODS AND RESULTS Primer pairs were developed for 16 high-quality simple sequence repeats (SSRs) using transcriptomes. SSRs...
