title: A novel microsatellite locus isolated from an AFLP fragment in the mangrove species Kandelia obovata (Rhizophoraceae).
abstract: The study of AFLP analysis in Kandelia obovata, one of the major mangrove species in Japan, revealed the existence of a unique fragment showing stuttered peaks. We cloned this fragment and found a novel microsatellite locus. We report the method used for isolation and the polymorphic nature of this locus among the populations on Iriomote Island.
