Abstract:
Microsatellite primers were developed and optimized for patchouli (Pogostemon cablin) to characterize the patchouli Active Germplasm Bank of Universidade Federal de Sergipe. Creation of a genomic library for patchouli enabled the design of 12 microsatellite primers. Six of these microsatellites were polymorphic, revealing two well-defined groups of individuals that possess exclusive alleles. The data allowed us to characterize the patchouli active Germplasm Bank, identify its genetic diversity, and provide new information for researching this species.
