New approaches to species delimitation and population structure of anthozoans: Two case studies of octocorals using ultraconserved elements and exons.

abstract：:We developed 11 polymorphic microsatellite DNA markers for an Australian native plant, Daviesia triflora. The number of alleles per locus in 40 individuals varied from four to 19, and observed and expected heterozygosities ranged from 0.450 to 0.925 and from 0.497 to 0.899, respectively. Nine loci showed no significan...
