Optimizing the lysis step in CTAB DNA extractions of silica‐dried and herbarium leaf tissues

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, 2023
Premise The use of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) is an effective and inexpensive method of extracting DNA from plants. The CTAB protocol is frequently modified to optimize DNA extractions, but experimental approaches rarely perturb a single ...
