Isolating DNA from matured dried leaves of M. dubia was difficult due to accumulation of secondary metabolites, majorly polyphenolics, which resulted in dark brown to black colour of the pellet. In this study, a modified STE-(Sucrose, Tris-HCl and Ethylene Diamine Tetra Acetic Acid) CTAB (hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide) method was standardized for removal of polyphenolics. The protocol developed yielded 200 - 1000 ng/μl of quality DNA without any impurities as evident by A260/280 ratio ranging from 1.75 - 2.0. It was also suitable for extracting quality DNA from other members of Meliaceae like Azadirachta indica and Melia azedarach. In downstream applications, the extracted DNA was used for PCR amplification by using ISSR and SSR markers. ISSR PCR conditions were optimized in a reaction volume of 25 μl, consisting of 30 ng of template DNA, 1.5 mM MgCl<sub>2</sub>, 200 μM of each of dNTPs and 2 U of Taq polymerase. The best amplification was observed and the same was applicable for SSR markers.展开更多

In the past, many varieties were selected and planted, but there is not still identification system for these varieties. This paper studied DNA fingerprints of the main G. biloba varieties cultivated all over the country using ISSR DNA marker. The results indicated ISSR marker was effective highly for identifying 13 varieties. Only using primer ISSR46 and ISSR44, 13 varieties were able to be identified based on 11 polymorphic loci (ISSR46-550,ISSR46-670,ISSR46-740,ISSR46-1000,ISSR46-1159,ISSR46-1359,ISSR46-1600,ISSR44-520,ISSR44-580,ISSR44-660,ISSR44-1750). In addition, we found ISSR marker was stable and repeatable highly compared with RAPD marker.展开更多

Results showed that the improved method is suitable not only for genomic DNA extraction of birch but also for that of other plants. The purity of genornic DNA extracted by the.multi-times STE-CTAB extraction method is higher than that by one time STE-CTAB method, and it does not need the process of RNase. The factors of influencing ISSR system were explored based on the genomic DNA of birch extracted by the two methods. The optimal conditions for ISSR system were determined as follows: Mg2+ concentration is 1.5-3.0 mmol·L^-1, dNTP concentration 0.104).25 mmol·L^-1, the quantity of Taq polymerase 0.5-2.0 U, template DNA 30-100 ng, and the concentration of primer is 0.2-0.4 pmmol·L^-1, and the reaction program was as: initial denaturation for 5 min at 94℃, 30 cycles of denaturation for 30 s at 94℃,annealing for 30 s at 51℃, extension for 30 s at 72℃, and a final 7 min extension at 72℃.展开更多

Here we present an improved protocol to extract DNA efficiently from dry or fresh leaves of a 'recalcitrant plant taxa', Betula alnoides Buch. Ham. ex D. Don in which three key steps are involved: 1) washing out most of polysaccharides and other secondary compounds with CTAB-free buffer from homogenate; 2) adoption of 3% CTAB rather than 2% CTAB in the exaction medium; and 3) using of high concentration of salt prior to DNA precipitation with isopropanol to remove residual polysaccharides. The isolated DNA has been proved suitable for RAPD-PCR amplification and restriction digestion. This modified procedure is simple, inexpensive and reliable, and is also applicable to many other plant taxa with high polysaccharides.展开更多

Hunong 5 has high commercial value due to its high polysaccharide and triterpene content, This is the first report of using a DNA pooling method to develop a stable sequence characterized amplified region (SCAR) marker for rapid identification of the G. lucidum Hunong 5 cultivar. The SCAR marker was developed by first generating and sequencing a distinctive inter simple sequence repeat (ISSR) fragment (882 bp) from G. lucidum Hunong 5 cultivar. A stable SCAR primer pair GLH5F/GLH5R were obtained to identify the cultivar and the SCAR marker is a DNA fragment of 773 bp.展开更多

Very few studies have validated the potential for isolating DNA from dried wood (Heartwood and Sapwood). Wood genomic DNA extraction is difficult from mature timber (Teak (Tectona grandis f;verbanaceae), Black Rosewood (Dalbergia latifolia f;Fabaceae) Ben Teak (Lagerstroemia lanceolata f;Lytheraceae) tissues due to presence of high quantity of secondary metabolites polyphenols, tannins and terpenoids and protein inhibitors. Mostly in laboratories DNA extraction kits are available but by using kits, DNA yield is very low and it is quite expensive too. We have standardized and validated the DNA extraction through manual protocol which is applicable for Bark, Sapwood and Heartwood samples of tree species which contains huge amount of inflexible tissues and fibers. The quality of the DNA was tested by spectrophotometer, gel electrophoresis and PCR (ISSR and SSR) amplification. An avrage DNA yield for heartwood ranges from 0.186 - 0.166 μg/μL and sapwood was ranges from 0.26 - 0.244 μg/μL. Modification of CTAB method was by addition of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) appx 0.25%, variation in Rnase concentration, proteinase treatment with different concentration and incubation time. In order to evaluate the standardized wood genomic DNA extraction protocol, we compared it with the mature leaf and core samples (heartwood and sapwood) of the same timber species. The outcome was also quantified and proved by means of polymerase chain reaction analysis by using ISSR and SSR microsatellite markers conducted with isolated pure DNAs. This modified protocol made increased yield and purity of wood total genomic DNA and facilitate the important application of forensic timber species effort.展开更多
