The invention provides a method and a kit for detecting genotypes of SNP (
single nucleotide polymorphism) sites in target genes by
cascade amplification, and the method comprises the following steps: designing a first primer, a second primer and a medium probe aiming at the target genes containing to-be-detected SNP sites, and designing an amplification probe according to a medium sequence of the medium probe, and designing a detection probe according to the single-chain report sequence of the amplification probe, and carrying out PCR amplification and amplification
product analysis in a
reaction system containing the upstream first primer, the second primer, the medium probe, the amplification probe, the detection probe, a
nucleic acid sample containing the
target gene and
DNA polymerase. The method is a non-target-dependent detection method, a melting peak with a
melting point of a certain duplex body is detected in
melting curve analysis, the
target gene SNP
typing corresponding to the duplex body can be judged, and by means of the advantages of PCR amplification and two times of PCR index amplification by combining the medium primer and the amplification probe, the SNP
typing of the
target gene corresponding to the duplex body can be judged. A large amount of target
nucleic acid can be enriched, and the detection sensitivity is improved.
