Summary: Paspalum plicatulum is a perennial rhizomatous grass with natural diploid and polyploid cytotypes. It is a member of Plicatula, which has historically been recognized as a highly complex group containing species of ecological, ornamental and forage importance. The complex nature of the P. plicatulum genome makes it a challenging species for genetic research. This study aimed to develop and characterize microsatellite molecular markers in P. plicatulum and to evaluate their transferability to other Plicatula group species.
