    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVE: To establish the EST-SSR marker system for Cordyceps by using ESTs of C. bassiana and C. militaris. METHOD: The ESTs of Cordyceps were downloaded from the public database of NCBI, and the redundant ESTs with low quality were removed. The EST-SSR primers were designed by Sequece Seiner 1. 2. And the primers were screened through PAGE-Electrophoresis. RESULT: The 4 556 non-redundant ESTs which from C. bassiana with total length of 2 953 173 bp were selected. 718 EST-SSRs distributed in 616 ESTs were totally screened out, accounting for 15.8% of the non-redundant ESTs. It was discovered that the average distance of EST-SSSR was 1/4 096 bp in EST-SSRs distribution of C. bassiana. Trinucleotide repeats were the most abundant types with 419 repeated sequences. Regarding to C. militaris, totally 1 363 non-redundant ESTs were acquired, from which 1 117 EST-SSRs were screened, and rate of SSR sites in ESTs was 81.95%. The leading motif of SSR was nucleotide A. The 50 pairs of EST-SSR primers were designed according to the ESTs of C. bassiana, and preliminary test showed the 34 pairs of primers amplified clear fragments,accounting for 68% of all primers. Furthermore, the 39 of the 40 pairs of primers from the ESTs of C. militaris were found to be amplified as the clear fragments, accounting for 97.5%. The phylogenetic analysis revealed that different anamorph of Cordyceps spieces were divided into four branches. CONCLUSION: The EST-SSR of Cordyceps had comparably higher utility value. The EST-SSR markers developed from ESTs of C. bassiana and C. militaris had well transferability in Cordyceps. And it was suggested that the EST-SSR markers should be an easy and effective way to assay molecular genetic structure of Cordyceps.
