The cacti family is a morphologically heterogeneous group comprising 100 genera and about 1500 species (Hernandez and Barcenas, 1996). With the exception of one genus, all members of this family are native to America (Hernandez and... more
Broad-range amplification of bacterial DNA from clinical specimens has proved useful for the diagnosis of various bacterial infections, especially during antimicrobial treatment of the patient. Optimal sample processing protocols for... more
A thorough understanding of the mechanisms of R-, C-and G-banding will come only from studies of the binding of Giemsa dyes to isolated and characterized preparations of heterochromatin and euchromatin. Since such studies require an exact... more
The major objective of our cucumber breeding program involves breeding for CMV disease resistance to reduce losses in quality and yield. Seven half diallel cross hybrids resistant to CMV were developed at the Vegetables Breeding Dept.,... more
Molecular genetic markers have numerous potential applications in environmental forensics if DNA can be isolated from 'difficult' non-human biological material such as hairs, feathers, or wood. The identification of the origin of... more
Application of DNA fingerprinting methods enables the detection of diverse members of soil bacterial consortia, even including those bacteria not yet cultivated. However, extraction and purification of DNA from soil samples without bias... more
The tissue is homogenised to break open the cells and the nuclear pellet is isolated by differential centrifugation. One treatment with high salt concentration, the DNA solubilise and dissociates from proteins on addition of cold 95%... more
Erythrina crista-galli L. (Fabaceae), known in Rio Grande do Sul by corticeira-do-banhado, is a natural tree of Brazil, Uruguay, Paraguay, eastern Bolivia and Argentina. It is found in marshy or swampy lowlands, very frequent in... more
In the last 20 years, the applications of genomics tools have completely transformed the field of microbial research. This has primarily happened due to revolution in sequencing technologies that have become available today. This review... more
Several DNA isolation techniques have been developed and some ready-to-use kits are now widely commercialized. To test the reliability of these products, two standard methods and two kit-extractions have been performed on a total number... more
Background: Application of PCR techniques requiring only minute amounts of Genomic DNA. Thus, a less invasive, simpler to perform, and cheaper method to obtain DNA from exfoliated cells is desirable. We aim to develop a method that can... more
DNA markers are being increasingly used in studies related to population genetics and conservation biology of endangered species. DNA isolation for such studies requires a source of biological material that is easy to collect, non-bulky... more
This review revealed a new mechanism for gene regulation through “gene silencing” at the transcriptional level (TGS) or at the post -transcriptional level (PTGS), which play a key role in many essential cellular processes. Today dsRNA... more
Optimization of DNA isolation protocol for genetic characterization of any medicinal plant is the necessary and primary step. Plant leaves of medicinal plants are rich in secondary metabolites, polysaccharides and polyphenols that are... more
