Sarracenia species (pitcher plants) are carnivorous plants which obtain a portion of their nutrients from insects captured in the pitchers. Sarracenia species naturally hybridize with each other, and hybrid swarms have been identified. A number of the taxa within the genus are considered endangered. In order to facilitate evolutionary, ecological and conservation genetic analyses within the genus, we developed 25 microsatellite loci which show variability either within species or between species. Three S. purpurea populations were examined with 10 primer sets which showed within population variability.

Sarracenia L.（猪笼草）物种中微卫星标记的开发和表征。

Sarracenia 物种（猪笼草）是食肉植物，它们从捕虫笼中捕获的昆虫中获取部分营养。Sarracenia 物种自然地相互杂交，并且已经确定了杂交群。该属内的许多分类群被认为是濒危物种。为了促进该属内的进化、生态和保护遗传分析，我们开发了 25 个微卫星位点，它们显示了物种内或物种之间的变异性。用 10 个引物组检查了三个 S. purpurea 种群，这些引物组显示种群内的变异性。
