The invention discloses a method for identifying germ cells of grass carps and carps by using dazl genes. The method comprises the following steps:
cloning dazl cDNA sequences of the grass carps and the carps, and performing comparative analysis by using DNAMAN
software; designing a universal non-specific primer, a
grass carp specific primer and a
carp specific primer according to sequence differences; extracting
total RNA (Ribonucleic Acid) of testis of 12-month-old
grass carp and
carp, and reversely transcribing into cDNA Respectively carrying out PCR (
Polymerase Chain Reaction) amplification by using three pairs of primers by taking the cDNA as a template; carrying out 1%
agarose gel electrophoresis and imaging on the PCR product, and identifying and distinguishing germ cells according to the size of a strip; the method is simple in structure and reasonable in design, high-specificity primers are designed based on small difference of dazl
gene sequences for the first time, precise amplification is achieved by combining with optimized annealing temperature (60 DEG C / 65 DEG C), special instruments are not needed, operation is easy and convenient, sensitivity is high,
grass carp germ cells in
carp gonads after
transplantation can be rapidly identified, development of the'belly borrowing
reproduction 'technology is supported, and the method is suitable for large-scale popularization and application. The grass carp breeding period is remarkably shortened, and the important industrialization prospect is achieved.
