Anigozanthos manglesii sequence reads
Microsatellites were developed for the future assessment of population genetic structure, mating system, and dispersal of the Red and Green Kangaroo Paw, Anigozanthos manglesii (Haemodoraceae). Using a Personal Genome Machine (PGM) semiconductor sequencer, ca. 4.03 million sequence reads were generated. QDD pipeline software was then used to identify 190 000 microsatellite containing regions and priming sites. Fifteen polymorphic markers were then developed in the laboratory. These markers will be used in direct comparisons of the impact of bird and insect pollination on A manglesii, and provide a resource for population genetic studies in other Anigozanthos species.
