It can also be used for the macro-study of repeat sequences. Since HMW DNA during preparation is inclined to be sheared physically and digested by internal nucleases, it is very difficult to prepare the HMW DNA. Initially, plant HMW DNA was prepared by embedding protoplasts in the low melting-point (LMP) agarose; however, it had several disadvantages: (ⅰ) Culture of protoplasts was time-consuming, costly and tedious.
