Abstract
Microsatellite markers have been shown to be highly polymorphic and simple to
use in hexaploid wheat. This study aimed to establish microsatellites as
informative markers for Australian wheat improvement. By screening
microsatellites developed as part of the Wheat Microsatellite Consortium and
other available microsatellite sources, 257 informative microsatellites for
Australian wheat varieties were identified and reported in the Australian
National Wheat Molecular Marker Program microsatellite database
(http://www.scu.edu.au/research/cpcg/). Of these, 151
microsatellites identifying 172 loci were scored on at least 1 of 4 double
haploid mapping populations and were then integrated, where possible, into
existing genetic maps. Polymorphism information content values were calculated
for most microsatellites to establish a reference for their value for future
investigations. The mapping of available microsatellites enhances the quality
of the genetic maps and may provide useful genetic markers for traits of
interest to the Australian wheat breeding programs.
