HotSHOT Extraction Is a Fast, Economical, and Efficient Method for Obtaining Tardigrade gDNA

Psyche: A Journal of Entomology, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Among the main problems in obtaining genomic DNA (gDNA) from small invertebrates such as tardigrades are the low amount of gDNA obtained per specimen, as well as the complexity of steps and number of reagents used for gDNA extraction. For example, the extraction method with chelating resin is the most used as an alternative to commercial kits for ...
