Abstract

For SNP genotyping, amplification of fluorescence (Amplifluor) is a popular and actively developing method in the plant sciences. The "Amplifluor-like" is a "home-made" modification of the original commercial Amplifluor method. Amplifluor-like genotyping requires two essential components: (1) two allele-specific forward primers targeting the SNP site with one common reverse primer; and (2) a universal part with two non-allele-specific molecular probes containing one of the two used fluorophores and a quencher. Allele discrimination is based on the fluorescence score, where the dominance of one dye over the other confirms the presence of each specific SNP allele. The Amplifluor-like method is similar to commercial KASP and original Amplifluor methods but is much cheaper because all components can be ordered as regular and modified oligos. The easily adaptable Amplifluor-like method can be modified by any researcher to make it suitable for available instruments, reagents and conditions in low-budget laboratories for SNP genotyping of any plant species with identified genetic polymorphism.
