GENETIC VARIETY IDENTIFYING METHOD IN HOPS

摘要

This invention is a method for identifying hop varieties based on polymorphi sm in genetic sequences of hop varieties. Specifically, polymorphic regions of hop DNA are amplified by performing a polymerase chain reaction using an identifying primer designed to amplify regions comprising polymorphism in the base sequences of differen t varieties, and the amplified DNA fragments are analyzed. In this way, hop varieties can simply and accurately identified.
