RESUMO
The molecular markers(cpSSR, cpSNP and cpIndel) were developed based on the whole genome sequence of Panax notoginseng chloroplast genome, which provide a powerful tool for the evaluation and analysis of the future P. notoginseng germplasm resources. The 89 P. notoginseng samples from 9 groups were used for the experiment, and the data for the study were derived from NCBI and the GenBank numbers were: KJ566590, KP036468, KR021381 and KT001509. Through sequence alignment, 30 polymorphic sites(SNP and Indel) were identified, including 16 cpSNP and 14 cpIndel; cpSNP and cpIndel accounted for far more than the gene region in the intergenic region. The developed cpSSR reached 87-89, the repeat unit was mainly composed of trinucleotide, accounting for 70%-71%, and the dinucleotide was the least, accounting for 7%. Eighteen cpDNA molecular markers were developed, including 7 cpSSR primers, 6 cpIndel primers, and 5 cpSNP primers. The MatK gene and ycf1 primers were chosen as control. According to the results of DNA gel electrophoresis, cpSSR-5, pgcpir019 and pncp08 can be used to distinguish different cultivated populations of P. notoginseng. Among them, cpSSR-5 and pgcpir019 can also be used to distinguish the inter-species resources of ginseng by comprehensive sequence length, population π value and average nucleotide difference. However, pncp08 can only be used to distinguish different populations of P. notoginseng. In addition, the effect of distinguishing the groups of P. notoginseng, which the primer pncp-M(based on the MatK gene) is weaker than the cpSSR-5, pgcpir019 and pncp08.
