Abstract:

To accelerate the improvement of waxy maize germplasm resources by molecular marker-assisted selection, waxy maize inbred line Yun 539 and ordinary maize inbred line Chang 7-2 were used. Through DNA sequence analysis, it was found that the wx gene mutation of Yun 539 belongs to wx-D7 mutation. The waxy gene function marker FMD7 was developed based on sequence difference between the two inbred lines and it was identified through phenotypic verification and universal verification. By using the marker FMD7 for molecular marker-assisted selection combined with yield, plant type, and quality trait analysis, six excellent Chang 7-2 improved lines carrying wx gene were identified. The marker FMD7 developed in this study for molecular selection can speed up the process of backcross breeding, improve the breeding efficiency, and provide a material basis for breeding high-yielding waxy maize hybrids. At the same time, it provides a theoretical reference for molecular marker-assisted selection of traits controlled by single gene or a few major genes.

Key words: Maize, Gene, FMD7, Molecular marker-assisted selection
