Premise of the study: Microsatellite primers were developed for studies of polyploid evolution, ecological genetics, conservation genetics, and species delimitation in the genus <i>Solidago</i>. Methods and Results: Illumina sequencing of a shotgun library from <i>S. gigantea</i> identified ca. 1900 putative single-copy loci. Fourteen loci were subsequently shown to be amplifiable, single-copy, and variable in a broad range of <i>Solidago</i> species. Conclusions: The utility of these markers both across the genus and in herbarium specimens of a wide age range will facilitate numerous inter- and intraspecific studies in the ca. 120 <i>Solidago</i> species.
