Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of molecular markers, and more particularly to a Michelia alba SSR molecular marker primer set and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Michelia alba is a evergreen tree of Magnoliaceae and Miechelia, also known as white orchid, white Myanmar Gui, white Myanmar flower, etc. Michelia alba is a hybrid of M.chanpaca and M.montana. Michelia alba has a high and elegant tree shape, gray bark, and evergreen green branches and leaves. Michelia alba is rich in volatile oil, which is refreshing and pleasant, and is an important raw material for jasmine tea processing, which enhances the freshness of tea. It can also be used as an ingredient to process white orchid tea. In addition, its flowers can also be extracted for medicinal use, which can promote blood circulation and resolve turbidity, and treat cough. Therefore, Michelia alba is a tree species with high comprehensive utilization value in southern China, which is widely used as a spice, ornamental, timber and medicine.

[0003] Simple Sequence Repeat (SSR) is a DNA sequence composed of single nucleotide to six nucleotide units in tandem repeats. SSR sequences have the advantages of co-dominance, good specificity, multiple alleles, easy detection, and good repeatability, and are widely used in genetic diversity evaluation, variety identification, genetic map construction and other aspects. Transcriptome can accurately reveal the genetic coding information of genes, therefore, the SSR marker developed based on transcriptome sequence is a new type of SSR functional marker. With the maturation of sequencing technology and the significant reduction in cost, transcriptome sequencing technology has been widely used in the research of various species, and the accumulation of transcriptome data has laid a good foundation for the development of SSR markers. The SSR marker developed by using transcriptome data has the advantage of being more likely to be associated with genes. The SSR marker developed based on transcriptome has revealed the distribution types and characteristics of different species in transcriptome sequences in multiple species such as Eriobotrya japonica (Thunb.) Lindl., Fagopyrum cymosum, Michelia macclurei Dandy, Cumumis melo L. and Solanum melongena L., which helps to deeply understand the genetic characteristics and evolutionary history of species, and also provides a powerful tool for the protection and utilization of germplasm resources, genetic breeding, etc. However, the SSR marker of Michelia alba has not been reported so far.

[0004] In summary, how to provide a SSR marker based on the transcriptome of Michelia alba is a problem that those skilled in the art need to solve. SUMMARY

A total of 34 samples were collected.

[0024] Table 134 White Orchid Sampling Information

[0025]

[0026]

[0027] 1.2 Experimental methods

[0028] A. Use the Plant Genomic DNA Kit to extract genomic DNA from Orchidaceae according to the kit instructions. Detect the quality of the extracted DNA using an ultra-micro-volume full-spectrum spectrophotometer and 1% agarose gel. Store the DNA at -20°C until ready for use.

[0029] B. The SSR-PCR reaction system is as follows: DNA template 1 μL, 2× Taq PCR Master Mix 5 μL, ddH2O 2 μL, upstream primer 1 μL, downstream primer 1 μL, primer concentration is 10 μmol / L -1 .

[0030] The SSR-PCR reaction procedure was as follows: pre-denaturation at 94°C for 5 min, followed by 5 cycles of denaturation at 94°C for 1 min, annealing at 37°C for 1 min, and extension at 72°C for 10 s; 33 cycles of denaturation at 94°C for 1 min, annealing at 55°C for 1 min, and extension at 72°C for 10 s; and extension at 72°C for another 7 min. The reaction was terminated at 10°C and stored at 4°C.

[0031] After the SSR-PCR reaction, the cells were stored in a 4°C refrigerator.

[0032] C. Silver staining and data recording: Use a pipette to spot 2.0 μL of the SSR-PCR product onto a polyacrylamide gel. Run electrophoresis at 200 V for 1.5 hours. After electrophoresis, silver stain the gel and add developer to visualize the bands. Based on the banding results, manually read the major band of the SSR locus and record its molecular weight for subsequent analysis.

[0033] 1.3 Analysis methods

[0034] A. Assembly of the P. serrata transcriptome: FastQC software was used to perform quality control on the sequencing data. Trimmomatic software was used to trim and remove low-quality sequences and adapter sequences to obtain clean data. Trinity software was then used to assemble the transcriptome without a reference genome.

[0035] B. Development of SSR markers for white orchid: On this basis, the MISA script was used to identify the SSR sites in the white orchid transcripts. The screening criteria for SSR sites were set as follows: the number of repetitions of two to six nucleotides was not less than 10, 7, 5, 5, and 5 times, respectively. Data retrieval was completed based on this screening criteria, and two SSR sites with an interval of less than or equal to 100nt were regarded as a composite SSR site. In addition, the frequency of occurrence, distribution density, and repetition type of SSR were statistically analyzed. Primer3 software was used for primer design, and its specific standards were as follows: primer length was 18-22bp, GC content was 30%-70%, annealing temperature Tm was 55-65℃, and the difference in Tm value between upstream and downstream primers did not exceed 5℃.

[0036] C. Genetic diversity parameters such as the number of alleles (Na), effective number of alleles (Ne), observed heterozygosity (Ho), expected heterozygosity (He), Shannon information index (I), unbiased expected heterozygosity (uHe), and polymorphism information index (PIC) were calculated using PowerMarker V3.25 and GeneAlEx V6.5 software. The genetic distance of shared alleles was calculated using DARwin software, and cluster analysis was performed using the neighbor-joining method to construct a phylogenetic tree, which was then beautified using ITOL software.

[0037] 2 Results and Analysis

[0038] 2.1 Analysis of SSR distribution characteristics

[0039] The 145,297 Unigenes obtained by sequencing the transcriptome of white orchid were retrieved using the software MISA. From the perspective of SSR distribution (Table 2), 32,863 SSR sites were retrieved from 27,971 Unigene sequences. The SSR occurrence frequency (the proportion of SSR sites to the total number of Unigenes) was 22.62%, and the SSR occurrence frequency (the proportion of Unigenes containing SSR sites to the total number of Unigenes) was 19.25%. On average, one SSR site appeared every 8.83 kb. Among them, the number of Unigenes containing more than one SSR site was 4,084, and the number of Unigenes containing complex SSRs was 1,750, accounting for 5.33% of the total number of SSR sites. The above results indicate that the SSR sites contained in the white orchid transcriptome are relatively rich.

[0040] Table 2 Information on SSR sites in the transcriptome of white orchid

[0041]

[0042] There are many types of repeat sequences in the transcriptome SSR data of P. serrata, ranging from dinucleotide to hexanucleotide repeat types. The number of different nucleotide repeat types varies greatly ( Figure 1 ), among which dinucleotide repeat types were the most numerous, with 20,989 types, accounting for 63.87% of the total SSR loci; followed by trinucleotide repeat types and tetranucleotide repeat types, with 9,009 and 2,281 types, accounting for 27.41% and 6.94% of the total SSR loci, respectively; pentanucleotide repeat types and hexanucleotide repeat types were the least numerous, with only 474 and 110 types, accounting for 1.44% and 0.33% of the total SSR loci.

[0043] There are different SSR repeat numbers in the transcriptome of white orchid ( Figure 2 ), the number of SSR loci ranged from 5 to 41 repetitions. As the number of repetitions increased, the number of SSR loci decreased significantly. Among them, the number of SSR loci with a repetition of 5 to 12 times accounted for 66.76% of the total; the number of SSR loci with a repetition of 13 to 28 times accounted for 31.94% of the total; and the number of SSR loci with a repetition of 29 to 41 times accounted for only 1.30% of the total. In terms of the number of SSR repetitions, the loci with a repetition of 6, 11, and 12 times were the most numerous, with the number of SSR loci being 4520, 4247, and 3712, respectively, accounting for 13.75%, 12.92%, and 11.30% of all loci.

[0044] 2.2 Polymorphic primer screening

[0045] Based on transcriptome data, 50 pairs of SSR primers were synthesized and screened for polymorphism using DNA from 6 randomly selected DNA samples from 34 accessions of white orchid. Based on the SSR-PCR amplification results, the amplification performance of the primers was statistically analyzed, ultimately selecting 47 primer pairs with distinct main bands, good polymorphism, and accurate readability (Table 3).

[0046] Table 3 Information of 47 pairs of SSR primers in the transcriptome of white orchid

[0047]

[0048] 2.3 Genetic diversity analysis

[0049] The genetic diversity of 34 white orchid samples was analyzed using the results of 47 polymorphic SSR primer pairs screened (Table 4). A total of 369 alleles were detected using the 47 primer pairs. The Na ranged from 4 to 15, with an average of 7.851; the Ne ranged from 2.438 to 10.371, with an average of 4.842; the I ranged from 1.088 to 2.493, and the Shannon information index of primer MASSR-9 was the largest, with an average of 1.690; the Ho ranged from 0 to 1, with an average of 0.835; the He ranged from 0.59 to 0.904, with an average of 0.768 (He>0.5), indicating that the genetic diversity of the tested materials was high; the uHe ranged from 0.599 to 0.917, with an average of 0.780, which was higher than the He (0.769). The uHe of each primer was higher than the He, indicating that the white orchid population had high genetic diversity. The mean Ho value (0.835) was greater than the mean He value (0.769), indicating an excess of heterozygotes within the population. The F ranged from -0.653 to 1, with an average of -0.089. The PIC ranged from 0.525 to 0.896, with an average of 0.735. The PIC values ​​for all primers were greater than 0.500, indicating that the developed primers were highly polymorphic. These results indicate that the developed SSR primers are highly polymorphic and suitable for analyzing the genetic diversity of white orchid.
