Figure 3. (A) Microsatellite marker TRSSRA01H11 amplification on 40 plants of T. polymorphum corresponding to patches J9 and J10 (1–20 = 20 plants from J9; 21–40 = 20 plants from J10; 41 = DNA ladder, 100 bp [Fermentas, Hanover, MD]). (B) Microsatellite marker TRSSRA01H11 amplification on 16 plants of T. polymorphum corresponding to patch J6 (molecular weight marker on the right, DNA ladder, 100 bp [Fermentas]).
