Summary: Embrapa develop for more than a decade, a breeding program of Elephant grass. This germplasm collection has been characterized by morphological, chemical and cytogenetic traits, however, a detailed molecular description to characterize the genetic diversity is needed. For molecular characterization of Elephant grass accessions using microsatellite markers (MS), the identification of these markers is required since no sequence information is available for this species.
