Primer designing - What are universal primers? - RiCK - 04-02-2014

Can anyone tell me about primer designing? Like how does one decide which part of the genome to consider for designing primer. And what if one doesn't know the genome like in case of designing primers for 16s rRNA of new organisms, how does one decide which part of the genome is 16s rRNA and how does he design primer? What are universal primers?
