Direct RAPD Evaluation of Bacteria without Conventional DNA Extraction
نویسندگان
چکیده
The present work reports successful DNA amplification of Pantoea agglomerans and Bacillus pumilus through Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD). For this, template DNA was obtained without conventional DNA extraction. The procedure was as follows: cultures grown for 20 hours in 5 mL LB medium were centrifuged and the resulting preparation was suspended in TE buffer. After boiling, the cell suspension was diluted and 2.0 μl were used in reactions of 15 μl. The results showed no significant differences among the RAPD profile of the PCR reactions derived from the boiling and phenol extraction methods, suggesting the utilization of this method for genetic population analysis.

Direct sequencing of RAPD fragments using 3'-extended oligonucleotide primers and dye terminator cycle-sequencing.
Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers are used widely to develop high resolution genetic maps and for genome fingerprinting. Typically, single oligomers of approximately 10 nucleotides are used to PCR amplify characteristic RAPD marker fragments. We describe an efficient method for the direct end-sequencing of gel-purified RAPD fragments using one primer from a set of four 3'-terminal...
متن کاملDetermination of genetic uniformity in transgenic cotton plants using DNA markers (RAPD and ISSR) and SDS-PAGE
One concern about using transgenic plants is the genetic variation that occurred from theirs tissue culture and regeneration. Molecular markers are an important element for efficient and effective determination of genetic variation. The present work was carried out to assess the genetic uniformity of transgenic cottons (Bt and chitinase lines), using RAPD, ISSR molecular markers and SDS-PAGE an...
متن کاملOptimized RAPD analysis generates high-quality genomic DNA profiles at high annealing temperature.
Techniques such as arbitrarily primed polymerase chain reaction (APPCR) (11), random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) (12) and DNA amplification fingerprinting (DAF) (7) are powerful tools for genetic mapping, taxonomic and phylogenetic investigations and for the detection of various types of DNA damage and mutation (2,3). Nevertheless, the arbitrary nature of the DNA polymerization catalyzed i...
متن کاملEvaluation of Genetic Diversity in Iranian Violet (Viola spp) Populations Using Morphological and RAPD Molecular Markers
Recognition of genetic reserves and desirable genes is the basis of breeding programs. So far, in Iran, due to the lack of recognition of genetic resources, a considerable breeding program has not been done on native plants. The study of the genetic diversity of violets as a native plant with ornamental and medicinal uses is the great importance in advancing the breeding goals of this plant. So...
متن کاملDetection of bacteria in environmental samples by direct PCR without DNA extraction.
Cultured cells and environmental samples were used directly in PCRs without the isolation of DNA. Serial dilution was used to eliminate the inhibitory effect of materials in natural samples. Primers specific for pmoA, which encodes a subunit of the particulate methane monooxygenase, were used to detect and quantify methanotrophic bacteria by direct most probable number PCR. Phototrophic bacteri...
