Abstract：DNA was extracted from single seed as well as seedlings of seven vegetables，including of cabbage，Chinese cabbage，mustard，onion，cucumber，tomato and pepper using magnetic bead method．The seeds of these seven vegetables varied in size and shape．The DNA quality was evaluated by real-time fluorescent PCR reaction using reference gene Actin．In order to check whether the DNA quality was goodenough for KASP（kompetitive allele specific PCR）assay，we conducted KASP assay for each vegetable．
The results showed that the average Ct value of DNA extracted from single vegetable seed by magnetic beads was in the range of 19-24．KASP assays further confirmed their quality was good enough for KASP markers assay．In conclusion，this study established a simple，economical and practical method for DNA extraction of single seeds，which has good stability for vegetable seeds of different sizes and greatly reduces the time for obtaining genotype data．
