Tissue-direct PCR, a rapid and extraction-free method for barcoding of ferns.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Fern gametophytes and young sporophytes often provide too little material for DNA extraction and are particularly difficult to identify to genus. Here we developed an efficient procedure called 'Tissue-direct PCR', in which a slice of fern tissue is mixed with PCR reagents and primers, allowing certain genomic regions to be amplified directly in the thermal cycler. For these diminutive and featureless stages of ferns, Tissue-direct PCR combined with amplifying plant barcodes promises to make the identification of immature ferns easy and rapid. Tissue-direct PCR would also be very helpful for large-scale ecological studies surveying distribution and population structure.

Detection of Bovine Viral Diarrhea Virus in Bovine Semen Using Nested-PCR
A rapid and sensitive reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and nested-PCR were used to detect bovine viral diarrhea virus 1 (BVDV-1) in bull semen. Selected primers could amplify a part of the 5´UTR of the BVDV genome. A 294 bp DNA fragment was amplified and specificity of the results was confirmed by direct sequencing of the PCR product. Prior to RNA extraction, the seminal...

متن کاملA RAPID AND SIMPLE METHOD OF DNA EXTRACTION FROM CLINICAL SPECIMENS CONTAINING MYCOBACTERIUM LEPRAE FOR PCR ASSAYS
We describe a rapid, simple, and reliable procedure for routine isolation of Mycobacterium leprae DNA from slit-skin swab specimens. This one-step DNA extraction method is based on the utilization of ChelexR 100, a chelating ion exchange resin. Slit-skin swab specimens from seven untreated leprosy patients at Baba Baghi Leprosy Hospital in Iran were processed by this procedure. The polymer...
