SSR PRIMER DERIVED FROM LAWN GRASS AND USE THEREOF

摘要

An SSR(simple sequence repeat) primer pair is provided to be very useful for DNA profiling of lawn grass by detecting DNA polymorphism of the lawn grass effectively, thereby being used to analyze whether a newly introduced genetic resource is duplicated with a conventional resource and securing novelty of the newly introduced genetic resource and identifying species of the lawn grass. An SSR primer pair comprises two sequences selected from the group consisting of SEQ ID : NOs. 1 to 60 and is derived from lawn grass(Zoysia japonica steud). A method for detecting DNA polymorphism of the lawn grass comprises the steps of: (a) extracting genome DNA from the lawn grass; (b) subjecting the extracted genome DNA as a template to PCR using the SSR primer pair; and (c) isolating PCR products obtained from the step(b) by size. A kit for detecting the DNA polymorphism of the lawn grass or identifying species of the lawn grass comprises the SSR primer pair.
