The invention belongs to the field of
molecular biology, and discloses acquisition of a waterlogging-resistant major QTL qWT1.1 in a corn
seedling stage and development and application of a
molecular marker primer of the waterlogging-resistant major QTL qWT1.1. The invention provides a major QTL qWT1.1 for controlling the waterlogging
survival rate in the corn
seedling stage, the major QTL qWT1.1 is located at the fifth version physical position of a
reference genome in the first
staining of the corn, the fifth version physical position of the
reference genome is Chr1: 25904794-27039204, the major QTL site is used for controlling waterlogging-resistant phenotypic variation, an excellent
haplotype SNP marker closely linked with the major QTL site is located at the 27039148th basic group of a first
chromosome of a
reference genome of the corn B73, and the excellent
haplotype SNP marker is located at the 27039148th basic group of a second
chromosome of the reference
genome of the corn B73. The explained waterlogging
survival rate phenotypic contribution rate is 10.03%, the PARMS marker designed by the SNP is used for detecting a corn inbred line group, the operation is simple and convenient, the
typing is clear, the good selection effect on characters such as
root length,
root number,
plant height,
branch number and yield under the stress of corn waterlogging is realized, and the application prospect is wide. The
molecular marker can be used for
molecular marker-assisted
selective breeding of the waterlogging resistance character in the corn
seedling stage.
