The invention belongs to the technical field of biomolecular markers, and particularly relates to a primer group for detecting an SNP (
Single Nucleotide Polymorphism)
molecular marker remarkably related to the
reproductive capacity character of
cherax quadricarinatus and application of the primer group. By means of the primer group, accurate
typing of the
cherax quadricarinatus
vitellogenin Vg
gene SNP loci can be rapidly and effectively achieved, detection can be completed only through conventional PCR and
agarose gel electrophoresis, the detection process is simple and convenient, consumed time is short, cost is low, and the primer group is suitable for large-scale and high-
throughput parent screening. The marker is obviously associated with reproductive characters such as egg carrying amount of
cherax quadricarinatus, the
typing result is stable and reliable, the
repeatability is good, only
tail fan
tail end sampling is needed,
dissection is not needed,
genotype identification can be completed in the early stage of breeding, the breeding period is greatly shortened, the high-reproductive-capacity parent screening efficiency is improved, and the breeding cost is reduced. The method effectively solves the problems of long period, low efficiency and the like of traditional
phenotype breeding, provides a stable and practical molecular tool for
germplasm improvement and efficient breeding of
cherax quadricarinatus, and has important industrial application value.
