DNA Extraction from Herbarium Specimens
2013With the expansion of molecular techniques, the historical collections have become widely used. Studying plant DNA using modern molecular techniques such as DNA sequencing plays an important role in understanding evolutionary relationships, identification through DNA barcoding, conservation status, and many other aspects of plant biology.

THE HERBARIUM PRESERVATION OF CONIFER SPECIMENS
TAXON, 1979SummaryThe adequate preservation of conifer specimens for the herbarium poses major problems concerned with the disintegration of material on drying. A new effective general method of treatment, which for the first time enables preservation to be achieved without disintegration, is described, and a schedule of treatment recommended.

GRAPEVINE VARIETY DETERMINATION FROM HERBARIUM AND ARCHEOLOGICAL SPECIMENS
Acta Horticulturae, 2014Genotyping old grapevine samples, in particular variety identification via microsatellite profiling, is not yet a routine. The success depends on several factors, the age of the investigated material being the most obvious one. In addition, the amount and integrity of DNA depends on specimen storage/preservation history.

A method of mounting herbarium specimens
New Zealand Journal of Botany, 1968Summary A method of mounting pressed herbarium specimens using liquid plastic and stacking the sheets white drying is described. This has been developed and found convenient where several technical assistants are mounting material from widely different plant groups, at limited bench space.

Herbarium Specimens: A Treasure for DNA Extraction, an Update
2020With the expansion of molecular techniques, the historical collections have become widely used. The last boom started with using next- and second-generation sequencing in which massive parallel sequencing replaced targeted sequencing and third-generation technology involves single molecule technology.

MICROWAVE AND THE HERBARIUM SPECIMEN: POTENTIAL DANGERS
TAXON, 1983SummaryThe use of microwave ovens to treat herbarium specimens as part of the curatorial process, while efficient and convenient, may cause irreparable damage and loss of information for future researchers.

Inadequacies in Herbarium Specimens of Large Ferns
American Fern Journal, 1973During the past several years I have been involved in research on the tree fern genus Cnemidaria (Cyatheaceae). Although nearly 2,000 specimens have been available to me for examination, a startling number of these have been partially or totally inadequate for purposes of classification. A small number are of questionable value even for identification.
