NEW ALOE CULTIVAR ALOE VERA SAENGJANG AND MOLECULAR MARKER FOR DISCRIMINATING THE SAME

摘要

The present invention relates to Saengjang as a new cultivar of aloe and a method for identifying the same. Saengjang as a new cultivar of aloe with peel can be crushed and drunk without being peeled as the peel is thin and thorns are soft. Five to twenty young sprouts grow around a grown-up aloe and are transplanted to be bred into a large amount. Therefore Saengjang can significantly contribute to increase of the income of farmers who cultivate aloe. Moreover, according to the present invention, the aloe can be identified by using four types of molecular marker primer sets. A maker, used in the present invention, is expected to be applied to cultivar identification to establish systems for determining cultivars based on places of origin of aloe, determining purity, protecting cultivars, and managing seeds.
