Evaluation of four viroid RNA extraction methods for the molecular diagnosis of CEVd in Citrus lemon using RT-PCR, Dot blot and Northern blot

An efficient method for RNA extraction that leads to RNA high yield and purity is a technical issue relevant for development and optimization of molecular diagnostic methods aimed to detect viroid infections in citrus varieties. Residual contaminants may affect RNA detection depending on the molecul...
