Genome-wide core sets of SNP markers and Fluidigm assays for rapid and effective genotypic identification of Korean cultivars of lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.).

ABSTRACT: Lettuce is one of the economically important leaf vegetables and is cultivated mainly in temperate climate areas. Cultivar identification based on the distinctness, uniformity, and stability (DUS) test is a prerequisite for new cultivar registration. However, DUS testing based on morphological features is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and costly, and can also be influenced by environmental factors. Thus, molecular markers have also been used for the identification of genetic diversity as an effective, accurate, and stable method. Currently, genome-wide single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) using next-generation sequencing technology are commonly applied in genetic research on diverse plant species. This study aimed to establish an effective and high-throughput cultivar identification s
