The invention belongs to the technical field of biological application, and particularly relates to a
mytilus coruscus shell length characteristic related SNP
molecular marker and application thereof. The
nucleotide sequence of the SNP
molecular marker related to the shell length characteristic of
mytilus coruscus is as shown in SEQ ID NO: 1, and the
mutation type is C / A
mutation. The development method of the
molecular marker comprises the following steps: collecting a
mytilus coruscus sample, measuring phenotypic data of the shell length of the sample, combining with
whole genome association analysis, screening out SNP candidate sites obviously associated with the shell length characteristic, designing
specific primers, and finally determining the associated SNP marker through two-stage analysis of
primary screening and cross-
population verification by utilizing PCR amplification and a first-generation sequencing technology. According to the invention, a
mytilus coruscus shell length characteristic SNP marking
system is established, the cost is greatly reduced compared with that of traditional
chip detection, and false positive interference is eliminated through
large sample verification. The screening and
verification method of the SNP molecular marker can be used for molecular marker-assisted breeding, accelerates breeding of improved varieties of
mytilus coruscus, and provides
technical support for genetic
mechanism analysis of growth traits of
mytilus coruscus.
