[0043] Step 1: Collect 107 tissue sample germplasms of Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi including Guo Qin No. 1;

[0044] Step 2: Total DNA extraction, quality detection and genotyping;

[0045] 2.1 Universal genomic DNA extraction kit (magnetic bead method, China Meiji Huaxia Reagent Kit) is used for sample DNA extraction to obtain total DNA of Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi samples;

[0046] 2.2 DYY-6C electrophoresis instrument is used for 1% agarose gel electrophoresis to detect the total DNA of Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi samples;

[0047] 2.3 Nanodrop ultraviolet spectrophotometer is used to detect the concentration of total DNA of Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi samples, the light absorption ratio (OD260 / 280) is between 1.8 and 2.2, the Qubit 3.0 detects the concentration greater than 50 ng / μL, and the total amount is greater than 2 ug.

[0048] 2.4 After the DNA sample is qualified, use the Covaris ultrasonic crusher to randomly break it, and then go through the steps of end repair, A tail addition, sequencing adapter addition, purification, PCR amplification, etc. to complete the entire library preparation work. After the library construction is completed, use Qubit 3.0 to perform preliminary quantification, dilute the library, and then use Agilent 2100 to detect the insert size of the library. After the insert size meets the expected value, use Q-PCR method to accurately quantify the effective concentration of the library to ensure the quality of the library.

[0049] 2.5 After the library is qualified, according to the effective concentration and the target data volume required, pool different libraries to the Flow cell, and after cBOT clustering, use Illumina high-throughput sequencing platform Illumina NovaSeq X plus for sequencing.

[0050] Step 3: Quality control of sequencing data and sequence alignment;

[0051] 3.1 The original sequencing data (FASTQ format) is filtered by Trimmomatic to remove low-quality bases (HEADCROP: 10) and remove adapter contamination to generate high-quality Clean Reads. The data quality is evaluated by FastQC, including base quality distribution, GC content, sequence repeatability, etc. to ensure that the Q30 base ratio is ≥90%, and there is no excessive deviation or contamination.

[0052] 3.2 Use BWA (v0.7.13-r1126) software to align the qualified sequences to the reference genome GWHDEDD00000000 (included in the National Bioinformation Center, accession number GWHDEDD00000000) with default parameters. According to the alignment results, use samtools software (version 0.1.18) to calculate the genotype results of the target site, and finally use Annovar software for gene annotation of mutation sites.

[0053] Step 4: SNP site screening;

[0054] 4.1 A total of 1,121,566 original SNP sites were obtained through original data analysis. In order to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the subsequent analysis results, strict quality filtering, deletion filtering, minor allele frequency filtering were performed on all SNP sites, and di-allele and 4DTv sites were also screened.

[0064] The genotypes of the 9 SNP sites of the new Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi variety Guoqing No. 1 are converted into digital codes (using the numbers 0-4 to encode the bases N, A, G, C, and T), wherein A=1, T=2, G=3, C=4, and N=0, and the molecular identity card is obtained as: 114422334444112244.

[0065] Example 2

[0066] The SNP1-SNP9 SNP site combination obtained by screening in Example 1 is used to identify the new Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi variety Guoqing No. 1.

[0067] S1: Collect the market selling Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi seed seedlings, and add the selected Guo Qin No. 1 sample. The collected Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi sample information is shown in Table 3.

[0068] Table 3 Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi seed seedling detection sample information

[0069]

[0070] S2: The total DNA of the Scutellaria baicalensis Georgi sample was obtained by using a general genomic DNA extraction kit (magnetic bead method, China Meiji Huaxia Reagent Kit) for sample DNA extraction. The total DNA after extraction was detected by using a DYY-6C electrophoresis instrument, using 1% agarose gel electrophoresis, and the concentration of the DNA was detected by using a Nanodrop ultraviolet spectrophotometer. The light absorption ratio (OD260 / 280) was between 1.8 and 2.2, the concentration was greater than 50 ng / μL, and the total amount of the DNA sample was greater than 2 ug.

[0071] S3: After the DNA sample detection is qualified, the Covaris ultrasonic crusher is used for random breaking, and then the end repair, A tail adding, sequencing adapter adding, purification, PCR amplification and other steps are used to complete the whole library preparation work. After the library construction is completed, the Qubit3.0 is used for preliminary quantification, the library is diluted, and then the Agilent 2100 is used for detecting the insert fragment of the library. After the insert fragment size meets the expectation, the Q-PCR method is used for accurate quantification of the effective concentration of the library to ensure the quality of the library.

[0072] S4: After the library detection is qualified, different libraries are mixed according to the effective concentration and the target data amount required for the next machine, and then the cBOT is used for clustering the library, and the Illumina high-throughput sequencing platform Illumina NovaSeq is used for high-throughput sequencing of the library to obtain the original sequencing data.

[0073] S5: The original sequencing data (FASTQ format) is filtered by Trimmomatic, low-quality bases (HEADCROP: 10) are cut off, and adapter contamination is removed to generate high-quality Clean Reads. The data quality is evaluated by FastQC, including base quality distribution, GC content, sequence repeatability and other indicators to ensure that the Q30 base ratio is ≥90%, there is no excessive deviation or contamination, and the DNA quality control sequence is obtained. Specifically, the ILLUMINACLIP parameter can be used to remove street sequences and the like.

[0074] S6: The qualified DNA quality control sequence is aligned to the Huangqi reference genome GWHDEDD00000000 using BWA (v0.7.13-r1126) software, and the parameters are default parameters. According to the alignment results, the genotype results of the target site are calculated by samtools software (version 0.1.18), and finally the mutation site is annotated by Annovar software.

[0075] S7: The genotype of the sample to be identified at the same SNP site position is determined according to the position information of the SNP site of Guoqing No. 1 in Table 1. If the genotype of the SNP site corresponding to the sample to be identified is consistent with the genotype of the nine SNP sites of SNP1-SNP9, it is determined that the sample to be identified is Guoqing No. 1.

[0076] S8: The obtained SNP site is encoded according to the bases N, A, G, C and T, and the molecular identity card is obtained. The SNP site genotype information and the molecular identity card of the specific sample are shown in Table 4.

[0077] Table 4 SNP and encoding information of Huangqi detection sample

[0078]

[0079] S9: The molecular identity card of the sample to be identified is compared with the molecular identity card of Guoqing No. 1. The results show that the Huangqi seed seedlings collected on the market do not match the molecular identity card of Guoqing No. 1, and do not belong to Guoqing No. 1 sample; the selected Guoqing No. 1 sample matches the molecular identity card of Guoqing No. 1, and belongs to Guoqing No. 1 sample. As can be seen from Table 4, the molecular identity cards of all the selected Guoqing No. 1 samples in this embodiment are the same as the molecular identity card of Guoqing No. 1, and the molecular identity cards of different varieties are quite different. The results are consistent with the actual situation, and the accuracy rate of the identification results of the SNP site combination of the present application is 100%.

[0080] Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments can be modified, or some technical features can be replaced by equivalents; and these modifications or replacements do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application.
