Simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers provide a reliable tool for the identification of accessions and the construction of genetic linkage maps because of their co-dominant inheritance. In the present study, we developed new SSR markers with next-generation sequencing using the Roche 454 GS FLX+ platform. Five hundred SSR primer sets were tested for the genetic identification of pineapple, including 100 each for the di-, tri-, tetra-, penta-, and hexa-nucleotide motif SSRs. In total, 160 SSR markers successfully amplified fragments and exhibited polymorphism among accessions. The SSR markers revealed the number of alleles per locus (ranging from 2 to 13), the expected heterozygosity (ranging from 0.041 to 0.823), and the observed heterozygosity (ranging from 0 to 0.875). A total of 117 SSR markers with tri- or greater nucleotide motifs were shown to be effective at facilitating accurate genotyping. Using the SSR markers, 25 accessions were distinguished genetically, with the exception of accessions ‘MD-2’ and ‘Yonekura’. The developed SSR markers could facilitate the establishment of efficient and accurate genetic identification systems and the construction of genetic linkage maps in the future.
