Isolation and characterization of microsatellite markers in the tetraploid birch, Betula pubescens ssp. tortuosa

The mountain birch, Betula pubescens ssp. tortuosa is a tetraploid tree species which forms the tree limit in northern Fennoscandia. We identified nine polymorphic microsatellite loci in order to characterize the genetic structure of populations at different elevations close to the treeline. The mic...
