The application discloses a KASP
molecular marker for identifying pepper leaf occurrence and application thereof. Through construction of a genetic map linked with a pepper leaf trait and development of a
molecular marker, the strongest
candidate gene for controlling the pepper leaf trait is determined, a KASP marker and a primer for identifying pepper leaf occurrence are obtained through research, and the KASP marker and the primer can be used for detecting or screening different pepper leaf types, identifying pepper leaves, and performing pepper
leaf type typing. Meanwhile, the application provides a method for
typing pepper leaves or breeding pepper normal leaf plants, without needing to perform a large amount of
genotype sequencing analysis, and different
leaf type plants can be identified and distinguished through routine detection amplification in a laboratory, so that the method is convenient and easy to operate, the screening and identification of pepper leaf occurrence can be performed in advance, the breeding screening time is shortened, more excellent pepper
germplasm resources are provided, and
technical support is provided for pepper
germplasm identification and strain breeding.
