Abstract: The present invention relates to the field of biotechnology, and in particular to SNP markers as well as use and detection method thereof. The present invention employs whole genome sequencing to conduct whole genome sequencing on a large number of individuals of Apis mellifera sinisxinyuan, and obtains 21 pieces of SNP information specific in Apis mellifera sinisxinyuan, which become marker SNP sites for identifying Apis mellifera sinisxinyuan. The SNP sites provided by the present invention, which are specific in Apis mellifera sinisxinyuan, play important roles in the differentiation of western honey bee in China from the western honey bees in other regions, and in the adaptive evolution of western honey bee in China to the local environment.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the field of biotechnology, in particular to genes and use thereof. The present invention employs whole genome sequencing to perform whole genome re-sequencing on a large number of individuals of the honey bee Apis mellifera sinisxinyuan, and obtains genes specific to the A. m. sinisxinyuan. The genes play important roles in the differentiation of A. m. sinisxinyuan from the honey bees in other regions and in the adaptive evolution of A. m. sinisxinyuan to the local environment. The Foxo gene or the Ebony gene provided in the present invention can be used to identify A. m. sinisxinyuan from other subspecies; can also be used for studying the genetic diversity of species resources of bees; and can further be used for studying cold resistance genes. This will fill the gap in the research field of A. m. sinisxinyuan by Chinese researchers.
