Characterization of Simple Sequence Repeat (SSR) Markers Mined in Whole Grape Genomes.

ABSTRACT: SSR (simple sequence repeat) DNA markers are widely used for genotype DNA identification, QTL mapping, and analyzing genetic biodiversity. However, SSRs in grapes are still in their early stages, with a few primer pairs accessible. With the whole-genome sequencing (WGS) of several grape varieties, characterization of grape SSR changed to be necessary not only to genomics but to also help SSR development and utility. Based on this, we identified the whole-genome SSR of nine grape cultivars ('PN40024', 'Cabernet Sauvignon', 'Carménère', 'Chardonnay', 'Merlot', 'Riesling', 'Zinfandel', 'Shine Muscat', and 'Muscat Hamburg') with whole-genome sequences released publicly and found that there are great differences in the distribution of SSR loci in different varieties. According to the difference
