[0002] Monopterus albus belongs to the Synbranchiformes, Synbranchidae and Monopterus, and is widely distributed in rice fields, marshes and mud ponds in East Asia, South Asia and Southeast Asia. It is one of the "special freshwater fish" with economic value in China due to its good taste, high nutritional value, outstanding flavor and other advantages, and is commercially important and delicious. According to the 2024 China Fishery Statistical Yearbook, the domestic production of Monopterus albus has exceeded 355,000 tons, and the current resource production is in short supply, and the price is high, and its market potential is huge. However, the habitat of wild Monopterus albus is decreasing, and its genetic resources are severely damaged. Therefore, it is particularly necessary to accurately and directionally screen high-quality wild resources. The southwest region is one of the seven major natural geographical divisions in China, and the water system is rich and diverse, and the high-quality germplasm resources are rich.

[0003] Molecular markers are genetic markers based on nucleotide sequence variations between individuals, which can reflect specific DNA fragments of differences in the genome between populations. Compared with other morphological markers, cytological markers, microsatellite markers, etc., Indel markers have the advantages of simple operation, high efficiency, high repeatability, etc., and DNA in different stages of biological development and different tissues can be used for marker analysis. At present, there is no effective method to directionally screen Monopterus albus strains in different regions, so it is necessary to develop molecular markers for screening Monopterus albus strains in specific regions.

[0028] The following examples are only used to further illustrate the content of the present application, but should not be understood as limiting the present application. Modifications or replacements of the method, steps or conditions of the present application without departing from the spirit and essence of the present application shall all belong to the scope of the present application. The experimental methods not specified in the specific conditions in the examples and the reagents and materials not specified in the formula are all according to the conventional conditions in the art, and the reagents used are all commercially available.

[0029] The present application provides an Indel molecular marker for identifying whether the mud eel is a mud eel strain in the southwest region, and the obtaining method of the molecular marker is as follows: based on the existing mud eel genome sequence, by resequencing the mud eels of different regional strains, the genomic regions of the mud eel strains in the southwest region that are different from the mud eel strains in other regions are identified by whole genome association analysis, which are located at the physical positions of 82154891 sites on the first chromosome (Chr1), 38387108-38387137 sites on the eighth chromosome (Chr8), 12128106-12128124 sites on the first chromosome (Chr1), and 13742169-13742189 sites on the first chromosome (Chr1). The flanking sequences of 200bp before and after the Indel variation in the genomic region are selected for primer development. After the Indel molecular marker is amplified by primers, whether the mud eel to be tested is a mud eel strain in the southwest region is identified by the difference of the amplified fragments. The amplified fragments conforming to the nucleotide sequences of the Indel molecular markers SEQ ID NO:9-12 are mud eel strains in the southwest region.

[0030] The present application provides four pairs of primers for detecting the Indel molecular marker, and the sequences of the forward and reverse primers are shown in SEQ ID NO:1-8 respectively.

[0031] Example 1: Identification of 18 regional mud eel strains

[0032] (1) Extraction of mud eel sample genomic DNA

[0033] Cut a small piece of tail muscle of about 0.5 grams from the test O. latipes, extract genomic DNA using a tissue genomic DNA extraction kit (brand: Tiangen, item number: 69504), and use a NanoDrop 2000 spectrophotometer to detect the purity and concentration of the obtained DNA sample. The extracted DNA can be stored at -20°C for long-term storage.

[0034] (2) Indel molecular marker fragment PCR amplification

[0035] Using the O. latipes genomic DNA obtained above as a template, PCR amplification was performed using the primer pairs shown in the nucleotide sequences of primer pair 1 SEQ ID NO: 1-2, primer pair 2 SEQ ID NO: 3-4, primer pair 3 SEQ ID NO: 5-6, or primer pair 4 SEQ ID NO: 7-8 in Table 1.

[0036] A premixed PCR reagent kit with dye (brand: TaKaRa, item number: RR903A) was used to configure the following 20μl reaction system: Premix Taq 10μl, 10μM forward primer 0.5μl, 10μM reverse primer 0.5μl, template DNA 1μl, supplemented with ddH2O to a total volume of 20μl.

[0037] The PCR amplification program was as follows: 98°C pre-denaturation for 10 min, 98°C denaturation for 10 s, 60°C annealing for 30 s, 72°C extension for 1 min, 35 cycles, and 72°C extension for 5 min.

[0038] (3) Agarose gel electrophoresis of the amplified product

[0039] A 2% agarose gel was configured, the PCR amplification product was added, and electrophoresis was performed using 50bp DNA marker as a marker, with the electrophoresis conditions set at 110V and an electrophoresis time of 60 min. A gel imaging instrument was used to take pictures of the bands to obtain gel pictures.

[0040] (4) Identification of the amplified product

[0041] Identification was performed according to the bands on the gel pictures or the sequencing results of the PCR amplification product (sequencing was performed at Shanghai Sunway Biotech Co., Ltd.).

[0042] When primer pair 1 was used and the electrophoresis gel showed a band at 229bp or the sequencing result of the amplified product was as shown in SEQ ID NO: 9, the O. latipes tested was an O. latipes strain from the southwest region; if a band was shown at 199bp or the sequencing result of the amplified product was as shown in SEQ ID NO: 13, the O. latipes tested was an O. latipes strain not from the southwest region.

[0043] If the electrophoresis gel using primer pair 2 shows a band at 135 bp or the sequencing result of the amplified product is as shown in SEQ ID NO:10, then the tested eel is a strain from the Southwest region; if the band shows a band at 165 bp or the sequencing result of the amplified product is as shown in SEQ ID NO:14, then the tested eel is a strain from outside the Southwest region.

[0044] If the electrophoresis gel using primer pair 3 shows a band at 142 bp or the sequencing result of the amplified product is as shown in SEQ ID NO:11, then the tested eel is a strain from the Southwest region; if the band shows a band at 171 bp or the sequencing result of the amplified product is as shown in SEQ ID NO:15, then the tested eel is a strain from outside the Southwest region.

[0045] If the electrophoresis gel using primer pair 4 shows a band at 210 bp or the sequencing result of the amplified product is as shown in SEQ ID NO:12, then the tested eel is a strain from the Southwest region; if the band shows a band at 231 bp or the sequencing result of the amplified product is as shown in SEQ ID NO:16, then the tested eel is a strain from outside the Southwest region.

[0046] The experimental results are as follows: Figures 1-4 As shown.

[0047] Figure 1 The amplification bands of samples 1-3 were located at 229bp, while the amplification bands of samples 4-18 were located at 199bp.

[0048] Figure 2 The amplification bands of samples 1-3 were located at 135bp, while the amplification bands of samples 4-18 were located at 165bp.

[0049] Figure 3 The amplification bands of samples 1-3 were located at 142bp, while the amplification bands of samples 4-18 were located at 171bp.

[0050] Figure 4 The amplification bands of samples 1-3 were located at 210bp, while the amplification bands of samples 4-18 were located at 231bp.

[0051] from Figures 1-4 It is clear from the data that eels No. 1-3, from Chongqing, Yibin in Sichuan, and Kunming in Yunnan, are indeed from the Southwest China strain, while eels No. 4-18 come from other regions.

[0052] The above results show that the Indel molecular markers A, B, C and D can effectively identify whether it is a southern region of the Chinese rice field eel strain. Therefore, the Indel marker provided by the present application is beneficial to quickly realize the genetic identification of the Chinese rice field eel strain, accelerate the domestication breeding of the Chinese rice field eel wild germplasm resources in the southwest region, and realize precision breeding.
