Annotation	Ips typographus (L.), the eight-spined spruce bark beetle, causes severe damage throughout Eurasian spruce forests and suitable nuclear markers are needed in order to study its population structure on a genetic level. Two closely related genes encoding α-amylase in I. typographus were characterized and named AmyA and AmyB. The two α-amylase genes represent potentially beneficial nuclear markers comprised of the sequences encoding key metabolic enzymes and highly variable neutral introns, which can reveal valuable information on the genetic structure of Ips typographus populations.
