당근 EST 염기서열을 이용한 종자모 형질 관련 SNP 분자표지 개발

Carrot (Daucus carota L. var. sativa) is one of the most extensively used vegetable crops in the world and a significant source of nutrient because of its high content of ${\beta}$-carotene, well known as the precursor of vitamin A carotenoid. However, seed-hairs generated and elongated from the epidermal cell of seeds inhibit absorption and germination by various factors such as carotol and so on. Accordingly, mechanical hair removal process is essential before commercialization of carrot seeds. Because of this process, producers will have additional losses such as time consuming, manpower, capital and so on. Furthermore, physical damage of seeds causes irregular germination rate. To overcome such cumbersome weaknesses, new breeding program for developing hairless-seed carrot cultivar has been needed and studies for molecular markers related to seed-hair characteristic is needed for a new breeding program. Therefore, in this study, cDNA libraries from seeds of short-hair seed phenotype CT-SMR 616 OP 659-1 line, hairy-seed phenotype CT-SMR 616 OP 677-14 line and short-hair seed phenotype CT-ATR 615 OP 666-13 line, hairy-seed phenotype CT-ATR 615 OP 671-9 were constructed, respectively. Furthermore, 1,248 ESTs in each line, total 4,992 ESTs were sequenced. As a result, 19 SNP sites and 14 SNP sites in each of 2 combinations were confirmed by analyzing these EST sequences from short-hair and hairy-seed lines. Then we designed SNP primer sets from EST sequences of SNP sites for high resolution melting (HRM) analysis. Designed HRM primers were analyzed using hairy seed phenotype CT-SMR 616 OP 1040 line and short-hair seed phenotype CT-SMR 616 OP 1024, 1025, 1026 lines. One set of HRM primers showed specific difference between the melting curves of hairy and short-hair seed phenotype lines. Based on this result, allele-specific (AS) PCR primers were designed for easier selection between hairy-seed carrot and hairless seed carrot. These results of HRM and AS-PCR are expected to be useful in breeding of hairless seed carrot cultivar as a molecular marker. 당근(Daucus carota L. var. sativa)은 세계적으로 광범위하게 사용되는 채소 작물 중 하나로 비타민 A 카로티노이드의 전구체로 잘 알려진 베타카로틴이 다량 함유되어 있어 영양학적으로도 중요한 작물이다. 하지만 당근 종자는 종피의 epidermal 세포에서 연장되는 형태로 생성되는 종자모의 캐로톨 등과 같은 다양한 요인들에 의해 종자의 수분흡수와 발아가 억제된다. 따라서 당근 종자를 상품화하기 이전에 기계적인 종자모 제거과정을 거쳐야 하며 이러한 과정 때문에 생산자는 종자의 물리적인 손실은 물론 시간과 노동력, 그리고 자본금과 같은 추가적인 손실을 감수해야만 한다. 그리고 종자의 물리적인 손실은 종자발아율을 불균일하게 한다. 이러한 문제점들을 보완하기 위해서 무모종자 당근품종 개발을 위한 육종이 필요하게 되었으며 이
