• Premise of the study: Polymorphic microsatellite markers were developed in Reaumuria soongorica , a desert shrub occurring widely in western China, to investigate its genetic diversity and population genetic structure. • Methods and Results: Using the combined biotin capture technique, 10 novel polymorphic microsatellite loci primer sets were isolated and characterized in 90 individuals from six populations of R. soongorica . Five to 14 alleles per locus were identified for these microsatellites. Observed and expected heterozygosities ranged from 0.132 to 0.593, and 0.217 to 0.803, respectively. • Conclusions: These microsatellite markers provide a useful tool to assess the genetic variation and population structure of R. soongorica .
