This invention discloses a
molecular marker InDel05 related to
soybean oil content, detection primers, and their applications. The
molecular marker InDel05 is located at the physical location 41854660-41854682 on soybean
chromosome 5, and its
nucleotide sequence is shown in SEQ ID No. 1. Based on this, detection primers for the
molecular marker InDel05 were designed. The length difference of the amplification products is detected by PCR amplification. Soybean materials without the inserted fragment in the PCR amplification product are high-oil-content soybeans, while those with the inserted fragment are low-oil-content soybeans, thus achieving the identification of
soybean oil content phenotypes with an accuracy of up to 87.5%. The molecular marker InDel05 and detection primers provided by this invention can be used for rapid, accurate, and efficient screening of high-oil-content soybean
germplasm, significantly improving the efficiency of marker-assisted selection breeding and accelerating the breeding process of high-oil-content soybean varieties.
