Optimization of DNA Extraction for RAPD and ISSR Analysis of Arbutus unedo L. Leaves

Genetic analysis of plants relies on high yields of pure DNA. For the strawberry tree (Arbutus unedo) this represents a great challenge since leaves can accumulate large amounts of polysaccharides, polyphenols and secondary metabolites, which co-purify with DNA. For this specie, standard protocols d...
