Simple sequence repeat (SSR) or microsatellite markers are co-dominant, abundant and hyper-variable molecular markers from eukaryotic genomes that are being widely used in genetic mapping and phylogenetic studies. Currently, the number of available SSR markers is still very limited for use in alfalfa (Medicago sativa). Thus, this study was conducted to develop SSR from alfalfa genomic libraries and EST and BAC sequence data from M. truncatula for use in distinguishing the nine historically recognized U.S. germplasm sources and eleven fall dormancy check cultivars of alfalfa.

Arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi are ubiquitous symbionts of terrestrial plant species with associations predominantly characterized as mutualistic. In addition to well-documented enhancement of host growth response, more recent analyses have demonstrated the conferral of host benefits under numerous biotic and abiotic stressors. However, much of the established evidence originates from studies involving limited AM fungal diversity. Accordingly, this study sought to evaluate the potential effects of inoculation on plant host physiological traits within a growth chamber environment, investigate potential correlations between host trait responses, & assess the degree of phylogenetic signal observed in trait responses due to the presence of …
