Embodiment 1

[0020] The 180 maize inbred lines (see Table 1) used for the identification of superior alleles in Example 1 are all parental inbred lines frequently used in maize breeding in my country; the public can obtain them from the Institute of Crop Science, Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences. For the genetic background analysis results of each inbred line, see (Chuanxiao Xie, Shihuang Zhang, Minshun Li, Xinhai Li, Zhuanfang Hao, Li Bai, Degui Zhang, Yehong Liang. (2007) Inferring genome ancestry and estimating molecular relatedness among 187 Chinese maize inbredlines .J.Genet.& Genomics 34(8):738-748), and as the basis for the main genetic groups.

Embodiment 2

[0042] Example 2, Discovery of Molecular Markers and Design of Specific Primer Pairs

[0043] 1. Discovery of molecular markers

[0044] Analysis of the sequencing results of the glutamine synthetase gene Gln1-3 of 180 inbred lines revealed a 12 bp insertion / deletion (Indels) site located at positions -274 to -285 in the upstream regulatory region of the gene, with the sequence as follows:

[0045] 5'-CCGCGTCGAGGA-3'.

[0046] The gene with the above sequence is the wild type, and the gene lacking the above sequence is the mutant type.

[0047] 2. Design of specific primer pairs

[0048] Design specific primer pairs according to the sequence as follows:

[0049] Forward primer: 5'-ATGTAACTGACAGGTGGGCCT-3' (sequence 2 of the sequence listing);

[0050] Reverse primer: 5'-TTGAGATTGAGGACGAAGGGA-3' (sequence 3 of the sequence listing).

[0100] Embodiment 5, application of specific primer pair in breeding

[0101] With deletion (D) excellent genotype CA156 as donor and insertion (I) genotype Wu314 as recipient, F 1 generation; the F 1 32 generations of F 2 generation groups. to F 2 Genomic DNA was extracted from 32 individual strains in the generation population, PCR was performed with the specific primer pair designed in Example 2, and the PCR amplification product was detected by electrophoresis, the method was the same as step 2 in Example 3.

[0102] see results figure 2 . 6 homozygous deletion (Deletion) genotype individuals (D), 12 insertion / deletion heterozygous co-dominant (Co-dominant) genotype individuals (C), and 14 homozygous insertion (Insertion) genotype individuals were obtained (I). Among them, the above-mentioned 6 strains of homozygous deletion individuals can be used as excellent homozygous individuals of this genotype directly for breeding applications, and the offspring of 12 inser...

Abstract

The invention discloses development and application of a molecule marker for corn with considerable numbers of kernels and an excellent allele function in a low-nitrogen adverse environment. The molecular marker provided by the invention is DNA shown by a sequence 4 in a sequence list. Based on the marker, the invention provides a primer pair consists of the DNA shown by a sequence 2 in the sequence list and the DNA shown by a sequence 3 in the sequence list. The molecular marker and the primer pair can be used for assisting in identification of the corn with different single-strain kernel number properties in the low-nitrogen environment and further used for corn breeding. The method of the invention can be used for screening in an early seed or seedling stage, has a great instruction significance for breeding high-yield, stable-yield and stress-tolerance corn varieties, can acceleration breeding speed and reduce breeding cost, has the advantages of simple operation, low cost and short period, is suitable for popularization and application, is a quick selection method for the identification of the corn variety and has a very high development value.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the development and application of functional molecular markers of excellent alleles with high grain number under the low nitrogen stress environment of maize. Background technique [0002] Corn is an important grain, feed and industrial raw material crop, and occupies an important position in the development of the national economy. Since 2007 in my country, corn has been the largest crop in the sown area. Nitrogen fertilizer is an important limiting factor for maize yield. However, the increase in nitrogen fertilizer application is far greater than the increase in corn yield. my country's corn production is highly dependent on nitrogen fertilizer, and the nitrogen use efficiency is low. The average nitrogen use efficiency of corn and other cereal crops is only about 33%. Extensive application of nitrogen fertilizers has also caused non-point source pollution such as excessive nitrate content in groundwater and eutrophicatio...
