Abstract

Twenty microsatelitte loci were identified and characterized in common bean. Microsatellites were tested in 14 genotypes. The allele number ranged from 1 to 3, and the polymorphism information content (PIC) was between 0.14 and 0.65. These polymorphic markers are available to be used for breeding programs.
