Variable microsatellites in the Pacific Oyster Crassostrea gigas and other cupped oyster species [PDF]

open access: yesAnimal Genetics, 2000
Source/description : Genomic DNA was extracted from a whole Pacific oyster (C. gigas) after grinding in liquid nitrogen. Purified DNA was then digested by a mix of 3 restriction enzymes (AluI, RsaI, HaeIII). DNA fragments ranging from 250 to 500 bp were size-selected by agarose gel electrophoresis and ligated into the dephosphorylated blunt-ended SmaI ...
