Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the fields of plant molecular technology and crop germplasm resource identification, and in particular to a specific molecular marker primer based on polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technology, and a method for accurately detecting and identifying E-genome cotton species using the primer in the context of diploid and tetraploid Gossypium species. Background Technology
[0002] Polymerase chain reaction (PCR), a core technology in modern molecular biology, is essentially an enzymatic synthesis reaction that mimics the natural replication process of DNA in vitro. This technology utilizes thermostable DNA polymerases, guided by specific primers, to achieve the specific recognition and rapid in vitro amplification of trace target DNA fragments through temperature cycling. Its core advantage lies in its extremely high sensitivity and specificity, enabling the exponential amplification of minute amounts of genetic material to the millions or even hundreds of millions within a short time.
[0003] A standard PCR reaction cycle typically includes the following three thermodynamic phases: (1) Denaturation: The reaction system is heated to 94 ℃~98 ℃ (usually 95 ℃) to break the hydrogen bonds in the DNA double helix structure, causing the template DNA to dissociate into a single strand, providing reaction sites for subsequent primer binding; (2) Annealing: The temperature is lowered to the optimal temperature for primer specific binding (usually 50 ℃~65 ℃), allowing two artificially synthesized oligonucleotide primers to specifically pair and bind to the complementary sequences at both ends of the positive and negative strands of the template DNA; (3) Extension: The temperature is adjusted back to the optimal activity temperature of DNA polymerase (such as Taq polymerase) (usually 72 ℃). With dNTPs as raw materials, the polymerase synthesizes a new DNA strand from the 5' end to the 3' end along the "template-primer" complex according to the base complementary pairing principle. The above three steps constitute a complete physical cycle. After each cycle, the number of target DNA fragments doubles (2 n Through 25 to 35 cycles of reaction, a high concentration of specific DNA fragments sufficient for subsequent electrophoretic detection and analysis can be obtained within a few hours.
[0004] Cotton, as a source of renewable textile fibers, has significant value in global cotton production and scientific research, with Asian cotton, upland cotton, herbaceous cotton, and island cotton being the main cultivated varieties. Through long-term adaptation to various harsh conditions and environments, cotton has developed extremely rich biological genetic diversity. Cotton species with the E genome possess excellent traits such as strong fibers, resistance to cotton leaf curl virus, resistance to kidney nematodes, and drought tolerance. However, in actual experiments, we sometimes encounter tissue or DNA confusion among cotton species with multiple genomes, and currently there is no rapid identification method for cotton species with the E genome. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide primers for the rapid identification of E-genome cotton species in diploid and tetraploid Gossypium and their application in the accurate detection and identification of E-genome cotton species.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of the present invention is as follows:
[0007] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a primer (T8-E) for rapid identification of E-genome cotton species in diploid and tetraploid Gossypium, wherein the forward primer nucleotide sequence of the primer (T8-E) is shown in SEQ ID No. 1 and the reverse primer nucleotide sequence of the primer is shown in SEQ ID No. 2.
[0008] Secondly, the present invention also provides the application of the primers described above for rapidly identifying E-genome cotton species in diploid and tetraploid Gossypium in the preparation of E-genome cotton species identification products.
[0009] Thirdly, the present invention also provides a reagent for rapidly identifying E-gene cotton species in diploid and tetraploid cotton, comprising the primers described above for rapidly identifying E-gene cotton species in diploid and tetraploid cotton.
[0010] Fourthly, the present invention also provides a method for rapid identification of E-genome cotton species in diploid and tetraploid cotton, using the above-mentioned primer T8-E, and performing PCR amplification with the complete nuclear genomic DNA of the cotton species to be tested as a template.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the technical effects of the present invention are as follows:
[0012] This invention provides primers for the rapid identification of *Gossypium elongatum* species in diploid and tetraploid *Gossypium*. Using these primers, a nucleotide fragment of approximately 350 bp can be specifically amplified in PCR reactions using *Gossypium elongatum* genomic DNA as a template; however, no amplification products are obtained in PCR reactions using genomic DNA from other diploid or tetraploid *Gossypium* species as templates, demonstrating high specificity. This method enables rapid and accurate identification of *Gossypium elongatum* species, effectively solving the problem of accidental confusion between *Gossypium elongatum* genomic DNA and other *Gossypium* species DNA in experimental work. It fills the gap in rapid identification technology for *Gossypium elongatum* species and has significant practical value. Attached Figure Description
