We report here the characteristics of 10 microsatellite markers isolated from a microsatellite-enriched DNA library from Antirhea borbonica, Gmel (Rubiaceae). Antirhea borbonica is an endemic tree on the islands of La Réunion and Mauritius (Indian Ocean) where it occurs on young lava flows (fragmented and perturbed habitat) and in old primary forest. Ten polymorphic loci were characterized, with two to 15 alleles per locus, based on samples from six populations. These loci will be useful for analysing population structure in a metapopulation context where populations frequently go extinct.
