The sequencing of 269 clones yielded 77 inserts containing repeat motifs. The majority of these (81.7%) were dinucleotide or trinucleotide repeats. The GT/CA repeat motif was the most common, accounting for 42% of all repeat types. From a total of 43 primer pairs designed, 41 produced markers within the expected size range. Sixteen (39%) were polymorphic when screened against a restricted set of taro genotypes from Southeast Asia and Oceania, with an average of 3.2 alleles detected on each locus. These markers represent a useful resource for taro germplasm management, genome mapping, and marker-assisted selection.","2002","published",,"Genome","45","5","National Research Council Canada",,"823-832",,,,,,,,,,,"TRUE",,"1480-3321",,,,,,"","http://dx.doi.org/10.1139/G02-045","http://scholar.google.co.in/scholar?as_q=Development+and+characterization+of+polymorphic+microsatellite+markers+in+taro+%28Colocasia+esculenta%29&num=10&btnG=Search+Scholar&as_epq=&as_oq=&as_eq=&as_occt=title&as_sauthors=&as_publication=&as_ylo=&as_yhi=&a","author",,"Australian Centre for International Agricultural Research","",,,,,,"",,,,,,,"",,,,,"",,,,,"","",,,,,"","",,,,,
