Total RNA extracted from the leaves of brown plant hopper resistance gene originated from a rice cultivar ¡°Cheongcheong¡± and sensitive rice cultivar ¡°Nakdong¡± were used to synthesize a cDNA library. As a result of analyzing the cDNA library, the 17 EST-SSR primer sets were developed. This study enables to provide effective marker assisted selection (MAS) methods on the selection of white-backed planthopper resistance gene originated from a rice plant more simply, quickly and precisely. Furthermore, using this marker¡¯s advantage of deriving from cDNA, it is possible to identify the white-backed planthopper resistance gene. In addition, this study introduces a technique for construction of a cDNA library safely without using radioactivity. %K cDNA %K EST-SSR Markers %K Radioactivity %K Rice %U http://www.scirp.org/journal/PaperInformation.aspx?PaperID=22909
