Abstract

Specific length amplified fragment sequencing (SLAF-seq) technology is a simplified genome sequencing technology based on next-generation sequencing. SLAF-seq technology has several distinguishing characteristics: 1. Deep sequencing to ensure accuracy of genotyping; 2. Effectively reduce sequencing costs; 3. Pre-designed simplified representation scheme to optimize marker efficiency; 4. Doubled barcode system for large populations. The advantages and technical process of SLAF-seq are described briefly with summarized results for the application of SLAF-seq in development of molecular markers, construction of high-density genetic map and gene mapping in ornamental plants. Finally, the difficulties and prospects of this method are discussed in application.
