Molecular marker for identifying antler varieties, identification method and application thereof

Abstract

The invention discloses a molecular marker for identifying antler varieties. The molecular marker comprises 16 SNPs of which the sequences are shown as SEQ ID NO.1-SEQ ID NO.16 respectively. The invention further discloses a method for identifying the antler varieties as well as application of the molecular marker and the method. The invention finds the molecular marker shown as SEQ ID NO. 1-SEQ ID NO. 16 for the first time; the molecular marker can well distinguish cervus elaphus antler, cervus nippon antler and hybrid deer antler, has the success rate of 95% or above during identification of the hybrid deer antler within five generations, and is high in reliability; in order to guarantee legal rights of consumers, the most economical and effective novel molecular identification way is provided; the molecular marker can also be applied to molecular marker-assisted selective breeding and variety identification of hybrid deer.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of molecular biology, and in particular relates to a molecular marker for identifying velvet varieties, an identification method and an application. Background technique [0002] Antler is the unossified and hairy young horns of male deer, which is a valuable medicinal material. Antler contains phospholipids, glycolipids, gelatin, hormones, fatty acids, amino acids, proteins, calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, sodium and other ingredients, of which amino acids account for more than half of the total ingredients. According to the records of "Chinese Pharmacopoeia", the varieties of velvet antler that can be used as medicine include velvet velvet, red velvet velvet and sika velvet velvet. Red deer antler is the antler grown by red deer. It is generally too big, and the weight is generally between 10-50 catties. The velvet antler is generally in the shape of single, two-bar, three-pronged, with high ornamental va...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

The appearance of the hybrid antler grown by hybrid deer has the characteristics of sika antler, but its market price is lower than that of sika antler, so it is easy to be sold by criminals as sika antler to deceive consumers

[0004] In the prior art, the quality of velvet is mostly identified from the aspects of color, texture, and smell, and the type of velvet is judged, but there is still a lack of a scientific identification method
