Genomic DNA Extraction and Genotyping of Dictyochloropsis Green Algae Strains
Authors:  Francesco Dal Grande, Carolina Cornejo, Christoph Scheidegger and Andreas Beck, date: 08/05/2015, view: 12342, Q&A: 0
Dictyochloropsis is an ecologically important genus of free-living and symbiotic green algae. Representatives of this genus are horizontally transmitted among several fungi of the family Lobariaceae, thus forming photobiont-mediated guilds. This protocol is suitable for extracting DNA from algal cultures and lichen samples and for genotyping seven unlinked Dictyochloropsis reticulata microsatellite markers in a single PCR multiplex.
