title: [Identification of PCR markers associated with cytoplasmic male sterility in Brassica oleracea var Botrytis].
abstract: The homology-based candidate gene method was used to identified the specific PCR markers linked to cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) in cauliflower( Brassica oleracea var botrytis.). Searching the DNA and protein data-base of NCBI , correlative genes or open reading frames were identified . Analysis of biosoft, based on the conservative regions ,five primers were designed . Among them, only primer P9/P10 produced a 313- bp specific fragment. Identified by individual plant testing , analysis of RT-PCR and dot blot ,this fragment was only existed in CMS cauliflower knxd612. Analysis of the sequence indicated it was high homologous(98%) with orf138 of Ogura CMS radish. Primary result suggested that the cytoplasmic type of CMS cauliflower knxd612 may belong to Ogura type. This research offered a good foundation to further investigate the CMS mechanism of cauliflower in molecular level.
