This invention discloses a dual-
gene specific primer set for
rapid identification of Chiroptera species and its application method. The primer set includes primer pair COI-F / COI-R for amplifying the mitochondrial
COI gene and primer pair Cytb-F / Cytb-R for amplifying the Cytb
gene, with
nucleotide sequences shown in SEQ ID NO.1, SEQ ID NO.2, SEQ ID NO.3, and SEQ ID NO.4, respectively. Experiments have demonstrated that this primer set exhibits good interspecific specificity and intraspecific conservation, effectively distinguishing Chiroptera from other closely related mammals and accurately identifying cryptic species and
juvenile samples that are difficult to distinguish morphologically. This invention employs dual-
gene markers for mutual
verification, significantly improving the accuracy and reliability of identification, providing a powerful
molecular biology tool for rapid and accurate identification of Chiroptera species, and has significant application value in fields such as
biodiversity surveys,
disease tracing, and ecological conservation.
