Cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB)–based methods are widely used to isolate DNA
from plant tissues, but the unique chemical composition of secondary metabolites among …

Despite decades of intensive research (especially from 1970s to 1990s), the ericoid
mycorrhizal (ErM) hair root is still largely terra incognita and this simplified guide is intended …

Modern genotyping techniques, such as SNP analysis and genotyping by sequencing
(GBS), are hampered by poor DNA quality and purity, particularly in challenging plant …

Given the explosive development of new molecular marker techniques over the last decade,
newcomers and experts alike in the field of DNA fingerprinting will find an easy-to-follow …

External mechanical forces resulting from the pressure exerted by wind or water movement
are a major stress factor for plants and may cause regular disturbances in many ecosystems …

The reduced cost of high‐throughput sequencing and the development of gene sets with
wide phylogenetic applicability has led to the rise of sequence capture methods as a …

Phylogenetic relationships for Hieracium subgen. Pilosella were inferred from chloroplast
(trnT–trnL, matK) and nuclear (ITS) sequence data. Chloroplast markers revealed the …

Data mining for a phylogenetic study including the prominent ericoid mycorrhizal fungus
Rhizoscyphus ericae revealed nearly identical ITS sequences of the bryophilous …

Seven DNA extraction protocols were used to obtain DNA from herbarium specimens of
Juncus and Luzula (Juncaceae) of various ages. DNA of historical samples is difficult to …

DNA studies have overwhelming importance in biological science. The aim of this paper is
to present a compact and hands-on summary of widely available tissue preservation …
