Development of novel genic microsatellite markers from transcriptome sequencing in sugar maple (Acer saccharum Marsh.)

Abstract Background Sugar maple (Acer saccharum Marsh.) is a hardwood tree species native to northeastern North America and economically valued for its wood and sap. Yet, few molecular genetic resources have been developed for this species to date. Microsatellite markers have been a useful tool in p...
