Abstract: In order to detect transgenic components in genetically modified rice, endogenous gene sps, exogenous insect resistant gene Cry1Ab/Ac, exogenous insect resistant gene Cry1Ab, exogenous insect resistant gene Btc, reporter gene gus, nos terminator and CaMV35S promoter were evaluated by multiplex polymerase chain reaction. Seven pairs of primers were designed, and primer concentration and annealing temperature were optimized to establish a multiplex PCR system. The results showed that the developed seven-plex PCR system could allow the detection of transgenic components in genetically modified rice and other crops including soybean, corn, cottonseeds and rapeseed meal with high efficiency and good stability.

Key words: transgenic detection, rice, seven-plex PCR
