As in autoteraploids, five genotypes are possible in a biallelic locus, allele dosage could be useful for variety identification in potato. DNA sequences of 13 genes associated with tuber yield, tuber starch content or late blight resistance were surveyed for single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in eight tetraploid varieties. A total of 193 potential SNPs was found by Sanger-sequencing, of which 58 were measured for nucleotide frequencies using a pyrosequencer. Of the 58 SNPs, 35 yielded distinct clusters, corresponding to allele dosages. Among these, six were highly correlated with another, leaving 29 independent SNP loci for use in variety discrimination. By using dosage scores at the 29 SNP loci, it was possible to differentiate 115 varieties, except for a sport with red tuber skin color, with at least three different SNP dosages. Therefore, using SNP dosages is a simple, fast and reliable tool for variety identification.
