Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the field of biotechnology, and particularly relates to a method for identifying cherry tomato varieties and a special SNP primer combination thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Tomato is one of the important vegetables in the world, and also the largest area of planting facilities in China. According to the statistics of the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO), the planting area of tomato in China reaches 116.92 million mu, and the total value of agricultural production reaches 323.98 billion yuan. In addition, the nutritional value of tomato is also very rich, which is rich in lycopene, vitamin C, flavonoids and carotene and other antioxidant substances beneficial to human body, which can promote collagen synthesis and improve iron absorption rate. In the process of tomato planting, different types and varieties of tomatoes not only differ in morphology, but also differ greatly in flavor quality. According to the data published by China Seed Industry Big Data Platform, it is mainly divided into large fruit tomato (single fruit weight 150-300 grams), medium fruit tomato (single fruit weight 50-150 grams) and cherry tomato (single fruit weight 10-30 grams). With the continuous improvement of people's living standards, the demand for fresh tomato is gradually increasing. The application scenarios of cherry tomato have expanded from traditional fresh food and cooking to leisure snacks, light snacks and other fields. At present, the popularization of innovative technologies such as vertical agriculture and intelligent greenhouse has also brought new breakthroughs in the unit yield and economic benefits of cherry tomato. The cherry tomato industry is showing a rapid growth trend in the global range, and the planting area and yield of cherry tomato in China are also increasing year by year.

[0003] Because of the great difference in cultivation environment and commercial use between cherry tomato and other types of tomato varieties, the type of tomato must be identified in the process of variety breeding and agricultural production. However, with the cross breeding and gene exchange between different types of tomatoes, cherry tomato cannot be identified simply by seeds or seedlings. According to statistics, more than 3600 tomato varieties have been applied for registration in China. Traditional field phenotype identification is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and cannot meet the current identification demand of the rapid increase in quantity. Therefore, it is urgent to establish a simple and rapid method for distinguishing cherry tomato varieties, and to provide technical support for cherry tomato variety breeding and identification.

[0004] Tomato variation group big data lays a foundation for screening cherry tomato population specific sites from whole genome. SNP, as the third generation of molecular markers, is widely distributed in the genome, with an average of one SNP per 1000 bp in the genome, which is genetically stable and easy to automate detection. KASP (Kompetitive Allele Specific PCR), i.e. competitive allele specific PCR technology, is a commonly used method for SNP typing, which has the characteristics of high stability, accuracy and low cost, and has been widely used in high-throughput molecular assisted breeding and variety identification. SUMMARY

[0005] In view of the deficiencies of the prior art, the purpose of the present application is to provide a method for identifying cherry tomato varieties and a special SNP primer combination thereof. The primer combination can be used to quickly identify whether the tomato variety is cherry tomato.

[0006] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present application adopts the following technical solutions:

[0007] The first aspect of the present application provides a SNP primer combination, which can include primer set 1 for amplifying ToSNP01 site of the tomato genome and / or primer set 2 for amplifying ToSNP07 site of the tomato genome;

The nucleotide sequence shown in SEQ ID NO: 2 from 1st to 21st from the 5' end is also a fluorescent tag sequence (i.e. HEX fluorescent tag sequence), and the fluorescent signal is specifically red.

[0022] The fourth aspect of the present application provides the use of the kit of the second aspect in identifying whether a tomato variety to be tested is cherry tomato or non-cherry tomato.

[0023] The fifth aspect of the present application provides a method for identifying whether a tomato variety to be tested is cherry tomato or non-cherry tomato, comprising the following steps: detecting the genotype of the tomato variety to be tested based on ToSNP01 locus and / or ToSNP07 locus, and then making the following judgments: if the genotype based on ToSNP01 locus is GG homozygous or AG heterozygous, and / or the genotype based on ToSNP07 locus is TT homozygous or CT heterozygous, then the tomato variety to be tested is identified or suspected to be identified as cherry tomato; if the genotype based on ToSNP01 locus is AA homozygous and / or the genotype based on ToSNP07 locus is CC homozygous, then the tomato variety to be tested is identified or suspected to be identified as non-cherry tomato.

[0024] ToSNP01 locus is the 44955024th nucleotide on chromosome 2;

[0025] ToSNP07 locus is the 46612819th nucleotide on chromosome 2;

[0026] The positions of ToSNP01 locus and ToSNP07 locus on the chromosome are determined based on the alignment of tomato HEINZ 1706 reference genome sequence, and the version number of the tomato HEINZ 1706 reference genome sequence is V3.0.

[0027] In the above method, the step of detecting the genotype of the tomato variety to be tested based on ToSNP01 locus and / or ToSNP07 locus can be as follows:

[0028] (1) Taking the genomic DNA of the tomato variety to be tested as a template, using the primer set 1 of the first aspect and / or the primer set 2 of the first aspect to perform PCR amplification, to obtain a PCR amplification product;

If the fluorescence signal is weak after the PCR amplification, which affects data analysis, additional cycles (denaturation at 94℃ for 20 s, annealing and extension at 55℃ for 1 min, 5 cycles) can be added until the results are satisfactory.

[0052] II. Obtaining of SNP primer combination for identifying the tested tomato variety as cherry tomato

[0053] Based on the 8 SNP sites discovered in step one, the inventors of the present application designed and synthesized 8 SNP primer combinations and performed SNP typing on 24 cherry tomato varieties.

[0058] Example 2, verification of the effectiveness of the SNP primer combination developed in Example 1

[0059] The basic information of the 159 tested tomato varieties in this example is shown in Table 3, columns 1-4. The 159 tested tomato varieties are all common market varieties. According to the phenotype, 46 of the tested tomato varieties are cherry tomatoes, and 113 of the tested tomato varieties are non-cherry tomatoes.

[0061]

[0062]

[0063]

[0064]

[0065]

[0066] 1. Obtaining genomic DNA of the tested tomato varieties

[0067] Genomic DNA of 159 tested tomato varieties was extracted by SDS method. The quality and concentration of the genomic DNA of the tested tomato varieties must meet the PCR requirements, and the standard for meeting the requirements is: agarose electrophoresis shows that the DNA band is single and has no obvious dispersion; the A260 / A280 ratio detected by ultraviolet spectrophotometer Nanodrop 2000 (Thermo) is about 1.8, and the A260 / A230 ratio is greater than 1.8; the concentration of the genomic DNA of the tested tomato varieties is 10-30 ng / μL.

[0068] 2. PCR amplification was performed by using primer group 1 or primer group 2 with the genomic DNA of 159 tested tomato varieties as templates, respectively, to obtain PCR amplification products. In each PCR reaction system, the concentration ratio of the primer containing “F1” in the name, the primer containing “F2” in the name and the primer containing “R” in the name is 2:2:5.

[0069] The reaction procedure is: 94℃ pre-denaturation, 15 min; 94℃ denaturation for 20 s, 61℃-55℃ (touch down program is selected, and the temperature is reduced by 0.6℃ per cycle), 1 min, amplification for 10 cycles; 94℃ denaturation for 20 s, 55℃ recombination & extension for 1 min, and continue to amplify for 26 cycles.

[0070] 3. After completing step 2, when the temperature of each PCR amplification product drops below 40°C, the fluorescence value is read by scanning the FAM and HEX beams of the microplate reader (the FAM fluorescent tag sequence is observed and read at an excitation light wavelength of 485 nm and an emission light wavelength of 520 nm, and the HEX fluorescent tag sequence is observed and read at an excitation light wavelength of 528 nm and an emission light wavelength of 560 nm). The genotype of the 159 test tomato varieties based on each SNP site is determined according to the color of the fluorescent signal. The specific judgment principles are as follows: if a test tomato variety shows a blue fluorescent signal based on a certain SNP site, the genotype of the test tomato variety based on the SNP site is the homozygous type of "the first base at the 3' end of the primer that amplifies the SNP site and contains "F1" in its name"; if a test tomato variety shows a red fluorescent signal based on a certain SNP site, the genotype of the test tomato variety based on the SNP site is the homozygous type of "the first base at the 3' end of the primer that amplifies the SNP site and contains "F2" in its name"; if a test tomato variety shows a green fluorescent signal based on a certain SNP site, the genotype of the test tomato variety based on the SNP site is heterozygous, one base is "the first base at the 3' end of the primer that amplifies the SNP site and contains "F1" in its name", and the other base is "the first base at the 3' end of the primer that amplifies the SNP site and contains "F2" in its name".

[0071] It should be noted that if the fluorescence signal is weak after PCR amplification, which affects data analysis, additional cycles can be added (denaturation at 94°C for 20 seconds, annealing and extension at 55°C for 1 minute, 5 cycles) until the results are satisfactory.

[0072] Some SNP typing results of primer set 1 are shown in Figure 4 The statistical results are shown in the fifth column of Table 3.

[0073] Some SNP typing results of primer set 2 are shown in Figure 5 The statistical results are shown in column 6 of Table 3.

[0074] The results showed that primer set 1 and primer set 2 could obtain good typing results in 159 tested tomato varieties.

[0075] 4. Evaluation of the efficiency of identifying 159 test tomato varieties as cherry tomatoes using primer set 1 or primer set 2

[0076] (1) The genotypes of 159 tested tomato varieties based on the ToSNP01 locus were counted.

[0077] The results show that the genotype of the 27 tomato varieties based on ToSNP01 site is GG homozygous, the genotype of the 19 tomato varieties based on ToSNP01 site is AG heterozygous, and the 46 tomatoes are determined as cherry tomatoes, and the consistency is 100%; the genotype of the 113 tomato varieties based on ToSNP01 site is AA homozygous, and the 113 tomatoes are determined as large fruit tomatoes, and the consistency is 100%.

[0078] (2) The genotypes of 159 test tomato varieties based on ToSNP07 site were counted.

[0079] The results show that the genotype of the 37 tomato varieties based on ToSNP07 site is TT homozygous, the genotype of the 9 tomato varieties based on ToSNP07 site is CT heterozygous, and the 46 tomatoes are determined as cherry tomatoes, and the consistency is 100%; the genotype of the 113 tomato varieties based on ToSNP07 site is CC homozygous, and the 113 tomatoes are determined as non-cherry tomatoes, and the consistency is 100%.

[0085] (2) Using the genomic DNA of the test tomato varieties as the template, PCR amplification is carried out using primer set 1 or primer set 2 to obtain the PCR amplification product. In each PCR reaction system, the concentration ratio of the primer containing "F1" in the name, the primer containing "F2" in the name and the primer containing "R" in the name is 2:2:5.

[0086] The reaction program is the same as part 2 of Example 2.

[0087] (3) After step (2) is completed, each PCR product is subjected to fluorescence analysis by using the same method as that in part 3 of Example 2, and the genotype of each SNP site is determined based on the same judgment principle as that in part 3 of Example 2.

[0088] It should be noted that if the fluorescence signal is weak after PCR amplification, which affects data analysis, the cycle (94℃ denaturation for 20s, 55℃ annealing and extension for 1min, 5 cycles) can be added until the result is satisfactory.

[0089] Part of the SNP typing results of primer group 1 are shown in Table 3 and the 2nd column of Table 4. Figure 6

[0090] Part of the SNP typing results of primer group 2 are shown in Table 3 and the 3rd column of Table 4. Figure 7

[0091] (4) After step (3) is completed, the following judgment is made: if the genotype based on ToSNP01 site is GG homozygous or AG heterozygous, and / or the genotype based on ToSNP07 site is TT homozygous or CT heterozygous, it is identified as cherry tomato; if the genotype based on ToSNP01 site is AA homozygous and / or the genotype based on ToSNP07 site is CC homozygous, it is identified as non-cherry tomato.
