Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of biotechnology, and in particular relates to KASP primers, SNP molecular markers, fingerprints and applications thereof for identifying different walnut varieties. Background Art
[0002] Thin-shell pecan (Carya illinoinensis (Wangenh.) K.Koch), a deciduous tree of the genus Carya in the Juglandaceae family, has kernels rich in unsaturated fatty acids such as oleic acid and linoleic acid, as well as various nutrients such as protein, polyphenols, flavonoids and trace elements. It has the effects of strengthening the brain, delaying aging, and preventing cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.
[0003] In recent years, with the breakthrough of breeding technology, the seedling sales market has been heating up. However, there are countless cases of "same thing with different names" and "same name with different things" in the market; inferior products are often sold as good ones, or even seedlings of other species are used as "fake products".
[0004] Competitive allele specific PCR (KASP) is a new genotyping technology based on single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), which can accurately type SNPs and insertion-deletion polymorphisms (Indels) at the genomic level. KASP genotyping technology can be used for high-throughput, low-cost, rapid and simple verification, and the selected markers can be used in variety identification and differentiation as well as molecular marker-assisted breeding. KASP technology has been widely used in molecular marker-assisted selection breeding of various crops, but it has not been reported in thin-shelled pecans. Although there are some molecular markers about pecans in the existing technology, most of them are limited to AFLPs and SSRs. Collecting and organizing the core germplasm resources of thin-shelled pecans, developing new core SNP molecular markers that can be used for thin-shelled pecan germplasm identification, and constructing fingerprint maps can establish variety labels for large populations of thin-shelled pecans. Summary of the invention

These SNP sites can form a fingerprint map for the identification of 112 types of thin-shell walnuts.
[0009] Furthermore, the sequence of the SNP site in the above fingerprint map is shown as SEQ ID NO.100~SEQ ID NO.132, and the SNP is located at the 201st position of any sequence of SEQ ID NO.100~SEQ ID NO.132.

The walnut plant samples used in the following examples can be obtained through commercial purchase or collected from the wild.
[0040] Example 1 Resequencing Analysis
[0041] 1. Experimental Materials
[0042] The source of materials and information are shown in Table 2:
[0043] Table 2 Sources and information
[0044] 2. Sample DNA extraction and library construction and sequencing
[0045] First, each sample leaf was preserved in liquid nitrogen, and the genomic DNA of samples 1 to 112 was extracted using a kit. A total of 994Gb of raw data was obtained by sequencing, and the sequencing results were 150bp paired-end data.
[0046] Specific experimental steps:
[0047] The library was constructed with 1 μg DNA as the starting amount;
[0048] High-quality genomic DNA was extracted using the CTAB method;
[0049] 0.75% agarose gel electrophoresis was used to detect the size of DNA fragments and the degree of DNA degradation;
[0050] NanoDrop One spectrophotometer (Thermo Fisher Scientific) was used to detect DNA purity, with an OD260 / 280 ratio between 1.8 and 2.2, and no protein or visible impurities contamination;
[0051] The DNA concentration was detected by Qubit 3.0 fluorometer (Life Technologies, Carlsbad, CA, USA), and the detection concentration was greater than 50 ng / μl and the total amount was greater than 2 ug.
[0052] After the DNA was sheared by ultrasound using Covaris M220, magnetic beads were used for fragment selection so that the sample bands were concentrated between 200-400 bp;
[0053] The qualified libraries were arranged to be loaded onto the machine for 2*150bp sequencing.
[0054] 3. Data quality control
[0055] (1) Remove the adapter sequence from the sequence;
[0056] (2) Remove polyG and polyX at the end of the reads (minimum length is 10 bp);
[0057] (3) The average quality value of the bases in the window is calculated by counting the bases in the window in a sliding window manner, and the low-quality sliding window is trimmed. Its function is similar to Trimmomatic;
[0058] (4) Remove reads with N greater than 5;
[0059] (5) Remove reads with bases with a quality lower than 15 accounting for more than 40%;
[0060] (6) Remove reads with a length of less than 15 bp after filtering.
[0061] 4. Data comparison
[0062] In the present invention, we used the genome of Carya sylvestris as the reference genome, used BWA alignment software to align the sequenced fragments back to the reference genome, and then used Picard-tools to remove the sequenced fragments generated by PCR-duplication.
[0063] Perform bwa (version: 0.7.17; parameter: mem) alignment analysis on each sample, align the filtered clean reads to the reference genome, and calculate the alignment statistics. The specific analysis steps are as follows:
[0064] (1) Use bwa alignment software (parameter: mem -R, other parameters use software default parameters) to align the clean reads of all samples with the reference genome;
[0065] (2) Use samtools (parameter: sort) to convert the alignment results from sam (Sequence Alignment / MAP) files to sorted bam files (binary Alignment / Map);
[0066] (3) Use samtools (parameter: markdup -r) to remove duplicates from the sorted alignment results for subsequent analysis;
[0067] (4) Use Python scripts to calculate the alignment rate and coverage.
[0068] Taking the reference genome as the standard, the average sequencing depth of the samples was 10.42× (9.29-26.08×), and the average genome coverage of all sample filtered reads after alignment to the reference genome was 85.40% (90.44 -97.44%).
[0069] A total of 31 365 448 SNP loci were developed.
[0070] Example 2 Development of core SNPs for identification of 112 pecan varieties
[0071] 1. Identification of core SNPs
[0072] According to the grouping of 112 thin-shell pecans, the SNP combination that distinguishes 112 thin-shell pecan varieties was selected. At the same time, in order to reduce the false positive of SNP, the following analysis criteria were adopted:
[0073] 1. Site detection rate = 100%; 2. MAF greater than 0.15; 3. Heterozygosity rate less than 0.4; 4. Redundant markers removed;
[0074] 5. There are no other SNPs within 30bp before and after the selected SNP site; 6. GC content: Analyze the GC content of the SNP site to avoid selecting sites with too high or too low GC content. The GC content of 150bp before and after the selected SNP site is 40%-60%; 7. PIC >= 0.2; 8. Site polymorphism >= 0.4; 9. There cannot be >= 8 consecutive single base repeats within 30bp upstream and downstream of the SNP site; 10. There cannot be homology between the 50bp upstream and downstream of the SNP site and other positions in the genome.
[0075] Finally, 33 SNPs were screened. The genotypes of the 33 core SNP loci in different varieties were sorted from small to large according to chromosome number and position as shown in Table 3. The specific sorting order is CHR1_6071055, CHR1_42893205, CHR1_47954051, CHR1_52228116, CHR1_57469932, CHR2_26663233, CHR3_2564907, CHR3_3638372, CHR3_7034444, CHR3_52781451, CHR4_5937447, CHR4_28328637, CHR5_2793044, CHR5_10451065, CHR7_35325592, CHR8_8984149 、CHR9_2652188、CHR10_6827793、CHR11_4001936、CHR11_5157026、CHR11_45224077、CHR12_19588842、CHR12_24676837、CHR13_694161、CHR13_2422699、CHR13_19946268、CHR13_25358204、CHR14_11071395、CHR14_17739311、CHR14_19889290、CHR15_19954498、CHR15_37055200、CHR16_3365513, the genotype combination of these different SNPs constitutes the fingerprint map.
