In this paper we consider the minimum weight multicolored subgraph problem (MWMCSP), which is a common generalization of minimum cost multiplex PCR primer set selection and maximum likelihood population haplotyping. In this problem one is given an undirected graph
G
with non-negative vertex weights and a color function that assigns to each edge one or more of
n
given colors, and the goal is to find a minimum weight set of vertices inducing edges of all
n
colors. We obtain improved approximation algorithms and hardness results for MWMCSP and its variant in which the goal is to find a minimum number of vertices inducing edges of at least
k
colors for a given integer
k
≤
n
