ABSTRACT
DNA markers are indispensable tools in genetics and genomics research as well as in crop breeding, particularly for marker-assisted selection. Recent advances in next-generation sequencing technology have made it easier to obtain genome sequences for various crop species, enabling the large-scale identification of DNA polymorphisms among varieties, which in turn has made DNA marker design more accessible. However, existing primer design software is not suitable for designing many types of genome-wide DNA markers from next-generation sequencing data. Here, we describe the development of V-primer, high-throughput software for designing insertion/deletion, cleaved amplified polymorphic sequence, and single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers. We validated the applicability of these markers in different crops. In addition, we performed multiplex PCR targeted amplicon sequencing using SNP markers designed with V-primer. Our results demonstrate that V-primer facilitates the efficient and accurate design of primers and is thus a useful tool for genetics, genomics, and crop breeding.
