Molecular markers (SSRs)

The molecular characterization has been performed by DNA extraction, PCR and fragment analysis using microsatellite markers (Single Sequence Repeats - SSRs), applying an array of 6 SSRs (UDO-43, DCA3, DCA9, DCA16, GAPU-101). 

This set of SSRs was selected given the following characteristics: a) high discriminant capacity; b) low confusion probability; and c) high reproducibility and easy result analysis. The conditions to analyze each SSRs are described in Trujillo et. al., (2014).
