The present application relates to the technical field of
plant molecular breeding, and particularly relates to a Kasp marker PH-03-KASP-106 closely linked to corn
plant height and application thereof, the marker comprises a
single nucleotide polymorphism SNP site located at the position 163964821 of the 3rd
chromosome of corn Chr3 and a KASP
molecular marker primer set, PCR amplification of corn
genomic DNA is carried out through the specific primer set, and the TT dwarf, CC high rod genotypes are distinguished according to
fluorescence signal differences. The present application can be used for early identification, screening and
molecular marker assisted breeding of corn
plant height traits, can improve the efficiency of dwarf corn
germplasm breeding, enhance the selection accuracy, clarify the breeding direction, and is simple in operation, high in cost-effectiveness, and suitable for corn breeding research and production practice of different scales.
