Ամփոփում:Premise of the study: We developed microsatellite markers for <i>Fimbristylis sericea</i>, a coastal herb found in sand dunes in Asia and Australia. Methods and Results: Twelve microsatellite loci were isolated, and the genetic variability within and among local populations was characterized. The number of alleles per locus was two to five with a mean of 3.5, total expected heterozygosity per locus was 0.069–0.645 with a mean of 0.336, and average expected heterozygosity within a population per locus was 0.051–0.230. Most of the loci deviated significantly from Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium. Conclusions: All 12 microsatellite loci were polymorphic within and among populations. These loci could be useful genetic markers for population genetic studies of <i>F. sericea</i> populations.
