The invention relates to the technical field of
molecular marker-assisted
germplasm resource identification and breeding of cherries, in particular to an
InDel marker for identifying
germplasm of Chinese cherries and European
sweet cherries and application of the
InDel marker, which are suitable for identifying two species of the Chinese cherries and the European
sweet cherries and interspecific
hybrid cherry resources of the two species of the Chinese cherries and the European
sweet cherries. The
InDel molecular marker is developed by designing a specific PCR (
Polymerase Chain Reaction) primer by utilizing InDel sequence information of a cherry
genome Cp235932912 site, extracting
genomic DNA (
Deoxyribose Nucleic Acid) of Chinese cherries and European sweet cherries, performing PCR amplification and
polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, reading electrophoretic bands, identifying the Chinese cherries, the European sweet cherries and
interspecific hybrids thereof according to the positions and the number of the bands, and identifying the Chinese cherries, the European sweet cherries and the
interspecific hybrids of the Chinese cherries, the European sweet cherries and the European sweet cherries according to the InDel
molecular marker. The molecular marker can be used for
germplasm identification of Chinese cherries and European sweet cherries, and can also be used for early identification of
hybrid authenticity of interspecific filial generations of the Chinese cherries and the European sweet cherries, and results are accurate and reliable.
