Description

Technical Field

[0002] Muskmelon (Cucumis melo L.) is one of my country's major fruit crops. With the increasing number of melon varieties, the difficulty of variety identification and protection has increased dramatically. Traditional field variety identification methods are inefficient and susceptible to environmental factors. Conventional isozyme marker identification techniques have low polymorphism and limited available enzyme types. Therefore, establishing a technical system for efficient and accurate identification of melon varieties has become one of the most pressing challenges in melon breeding and production.

[0118] Example 1. Screening of KASP primer combinations

[0119] A large number of sequence and functional analyses were performed on the melon genome, and 24 SNP sites were screened (Table 1) (physical coordinates refer to the melon genome version: Genome assembly USDA_Cmelo_AY_1.0, NCBI database number: GCF_025177605.1). KASP primers were designed for these sites, and more than 200 designed primer pairs were screened to select primers with stable amplification effects and clear typing. The KASP primer combinations for melon variety identification were obtained, as shown in Table 3.

[0125] 1. Construction of melon DNA fingerprint library

[0126] 1. The genomic DNA of 48 young leaves of melon (Table 1) was extracted using the CTAB method.

[0127] 2. Perform PCR amplification on 48 test melon samples using the 24 primer sets listed in Table 3 (all 24 primer sets in the same reaction system) to determine the genotypes of the 24 SNPs. This can be done using a fluorescent quantitative PCR instrument (AB-Q6 Flex) or the Douglas Scientific ArrayTape platform.

[0128] The reaction system (5 μL) for detection using a fluorescent quantitative PCR instrument, AB-Q6 Flex (Thermo Fisher Scientific (China) Co., Ltd.), was as follows: 1.0 μL of genomic DNA (50 ng / μL) + 0.7 μL of primer mix (the concentration of each primer in the primer set of Example 1 in the primer mix was 100 pmol / L) + 2.5 μL of 2× KASP Mix (Aijixi Technology (Shanghai) Co., Ltd., Cat. No. 1536) + 1.43 μL of ddH₂O. The reaction program was: 1 cycle of pre-denaturation at 95°C for 10 min; 40 cycles of denaturation at 95°C for 20 s and annealing at 55°C for 60 s. The sample table was edited, the run program was executed, and the data was saved according to the instrument manual for the fluorescent quantitative PCR instrument, which was used for the analysis.

[0129] The reaction system (1.6 μL) for detection using the ArrayTape platform consisted of: 0.8 μL of genomic DNA (50 ng / μL) + 0.03 μL of primer mix (the concentration of each primer in the primer set of Example 1 in the primer mix was 100 pmol / L) + 0.8 μL of 2× KASP Mix (Aigene Technology (Shanghai) Co., Ltd., Catalog No. 1536). The reaction procedure was: 1 cycle of pre-denaturation at 95°C for 10 min; 40 cycles of denaturation at 95°C for 20 s and annealing at 55°C for 60 s. The program was run and data was saved according to the ArrayTape platform instrument operating manual.

[0130] Data recording: In the data obtained using the above two detection platforms, the genotype data of homozygous sites are recorded as Allele1 / Allele1 or Allele2 / Allele2, and the genotype data of heterozygous sites are recorded as Allele1 / Allele2, where Allele1 and Allele2 are the two alleles at the variant site respectively; the genotype data of the deletion site is recorded as 0; for example, the genotype of the sample at a certain site is Allele1 / Allele2, the allele base of the site is A / C, Allele1 represents base A, and the genotype at this site is recorded as A / C.

[0131] The genotypes of the 48 tested melons at 24 SNP loci are shown in Table 4.

[0139] 3. Cluster analysis of the DNA fingerprints of the 96 varieties was performed using the Adegenet, Poppr, Ape, Phangorn, and Hierfstat packages of R (V 3.5.1) software and the tree format files were exported. Cluster mapping was performed using the Evolview online software (https: / / www.evolgenius.info / evolview / #login). Figure 2 As shown (the numbers in the figure correspond to those in Table 2). The results showed that the 24 pairs of KASP core primer combinations completely distinguished the 48 melon varieties.

[0140] 2. Methods for identifying species of samples to be tested

[0141] 1. Three groups of blind melon samples were randomly selected as test samples. The first group, numbered TEST01, TEST02, and TEST03, was used for variety identification; the second group, numbered TEST04 and TEST05, was used for consistency comparison; and the third group, numbered TEST06 and TEST07, was used for consistency comparison. Genomic DNA from the seven melon samples was first extracted using the CTAB method.

[0142] 2. PCR was performed using the method described in step 1 to obtain the genotype data of the sample at the 24 SNP sites. The results are shown in Table 5.

[0143] Table 5. Genotypes of 7 melon samples tested

[0144]

[0145] 3. According to the results of step 2, determine the melon variety to be tested. The determination method is as follows:

[0146] (1) Use the Adegenet, Poppr, Ape, Phangorn, and Hierfstat packages of R (V 3.5.1) software to compare the DNA fingerprint of the sample to be tested with the DNA fingerprint library of 96 melon varieties obtained in step 1. If the DNA fingerprint of the sample to be tested is the DNA fingerprint of a variety in the DNA fingerprint library, then the sample to be tested is or is a candidate for that variety.

[0147] The melon sample TEST01 to be tested was compared with the DNA fingerprint database of step one, and the result was that the DNA fingerprint of TEST01 was the same as that of "Yangjiaocui", and the sample TEST01 to be tested was considered to be the "Yangjiaocui" variety; the melon sample TEST02 to be tested was compared with the DNA fingerprint database of step one, and the result was that the DNA fingerprint of TEST02 was the same as that of "Yulu 2", and the sample TEST02 to be tested was considered to be the "Yulu 2" variety; the melon sample TEST03 to be tested was compared with the DNA fingerprint database of step one, and the result was that the DNA fingerprint of TEST03 was the same as that of "Huayang 1hao-1", and the sample TEST01 to be tested was considered to be the "Huayang 1hao-1" variety.

[0148] (2) Compare the fingerprints of different samples to be tested. When the number of difference sites between samples is ≥2, they are judged as "different varieties"; when the number of difference sites between samples is <2, they are judged as "similar varieties".

[0149] The fingerprints of the melon samples TEST04 and TEST05 were compared, and the results showed that the number of effective detection sites of the two samples was 24, and the number of difference sites was 20. Therefore, the melon samples TEST04 and TEST05 were judged to be different varieties; the fingerprints of the melon samples TEST06 and TEST07 were compared, and the results showed that the number of effective detection sites of the two samples was 24, and the number of difference sites was 0. Therefore, the melon samples TEST06 and TEST07 were judged to be similar varieties.
