Abstract:

Vegetable legumes are important vegetable crops in China. To facilitate the variety protection of vegetable legumes, this study focused on cowpea and vegetable pea as research objects, and constructed the DNA fingerprinting maps of 52 cowpea varieties(lines) and 48 pea germplasm using the species-specific core single nucleotide polymorphism(SNP) markers, respectively. We also evaluated the seed purity for 14 cowpea varieties(lines). Our results showed that SNP markers based on the kompetitive allele-specific PCR(KASP) technology could be used in protecting the new variety rights, distinguishing the variety authenticity and evaluating the seed purity. Meanwhile, we also suggested that we should formulate and publish the technical standards for identifying the vegetable legumes varieties based on SNP markers as soon as possible, which will provide the technical support for the healthy development of seed industry in vegetable legumes.

Key words: vegetable legumes, SNP marker, KASP, variety protection, seed purity
