Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of biotechnology and discloses the application of a group of SNP molecular markers as detection targets in identifying Chinese pumpkin germplasm resources. Background Art

[0002] Chinese pumpkins are grown in all parts of my country, with many local varieties. Discovering and utilizing excellent genes from the rich local pumpkin germplasm resources provides a reliable genetic material basis for the sustainable development of the pumpkin industry. However, such rich local pumpkin germplasm resources and complex genetic backgrounds have brought great challenges to pumpkin variety identification.

[0003] DNA fingerprints can essentially reflect the differences between biological individuals, have high individual specificity and stable reliability, and can accurately and quickly identify new and existing varieties. There are many different DNA fingerprinting techniques, such as RFLP analysis, RAPD analysis, AFLP analysis, ISSR analysis, SSR analysis, SNP analysis, etc. All of these analysis methods are based on DNA polymorphism and produce DNA fingerprints with high individual specificity. RFLP, RAPD, and AFLP techniques have been used in database construction, but they have not been widely used due to technical stability, complexity, and data integration issues. The International Union for the Protection of New Varieties of Different Types recommends SSR and SNP as the preferred DNA fingerprinting marker technology. Since SNP markers have the advantages of covering the entire genome, high throughput, site specificity, co-dominant inheritance, low false positive rate, sharply reduced development and testing costs, and easy data integration, they will become the main marker type for genotype identification in the future.

[0004] KASP (Kompetitive Allele-Specific PCR) refers to competitive allele-specific PCR. It is based on touch-down PCR technology and uses universal fluorescent probes to accurately perform biallelic typing of target SNPs and InDels for a wide range of genomic DNA samples, including complex genomic DNA samples. It provides important technical support for the construction of Chinese pumpkin fingerprints, kinship analysis, variety protection, and identification of germplasm resources. Currently, there is no report on the application of KASP in pumpkin variety identification. Summary of the invention
