Sixty-seven sequence-tagged site (STS) markers were identified from partial sequences of cDNA clones obtained from the inner bark of Cryptomeria japonica. Polymorphisms of the STSs were investigated for the parental clones of a mapping population, Haara and Kumotooshi, using both single-strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) and sequencing analysis. Twenty-two STSs showed nucleotide differences between Haara and Kumotooshi, of which 19 STS differences were detectable under the electrophoresis conditions we used here. We also analyzed SSC-polymorphism in 10 additional clones derived from various Japanese regions to evaluate the usefulness of the STSs developed here among other populations of C. japonica. Twenty-five, about 40%, of the STSs showed polymorphism under selected electrophoresis conditions. The genotype segregation for 19 STSs was investigated among the Haara × Kumotooshi F1 population, and these STS markers were mapped on a linkage map. SSCP analysis of STSs was efficient in terms of cost and time, and it allows detection of a sufficiently high proportion of polymorphisms to provide a convenient means for mapping of expressed sequences on a linkage map and for studying various aspects of population genetics.
