Mendelian laws of inheritance from one generation to the next one. SSRs, also known as microsatellites, are tandemly arranged repeats of mono, di-, tri, tetra-, and pentanucleotides with different lengths of repeat motifs ( Bhat et al., 2010 ). SSR markers

of DNA markers combining RFLP and PCR techniques, the amplified fragment length polymorphisms (AFLPs), have been used in the identification of some apricot cultivars ( Hurtado et al., 2002 ). However, SSR (microsatellites or SSRs) are the preferred

polymorphic loci (SAMPL) ( Tseng et al., 2002 ), and simple sequence repeat markers (SSRs) ( Gichuru et al., 2006 ). Microsatellites developed for genotyping sweetpotato ( Buteler et al., 1999 ; Hu et al., 2004 ) have been widely used for diversity analysis

et al., 1994 ). Microsatellites or SSRs are highly informative, reproducible, multiallelic, abundant, locus-specific, and codominant markers. Based on these features, they present a useful tool for plant molecular genetic studies, such as genetic

genomes of most eukaryotes ( Powell et al., 1996 ). SSRs are the preferred markers in plant breeding as a result of their uniform genome coverage, high levels of polymorphism, codominance, and reproducibility ( Pejic et al., 1998 ). Although SSR discovery

). Simple sequence repeat markers, or microsatellites, are repeating DNA sequences of one to six nucleotides that are found in coding and non-coding regions of the genome ( Toth et al., 2000 ). SSR markers, including expressed sequence tag markers, have a

variation in chromosome number and genome size among species of the Betulaceae, some degree of microsatellite marker transferability is expected based on results in other plant families. Microsatellites, also known as simple sequence repeats (SSR), are
