I tried to isolate Genomic DNA from Jatropha curcas with high yield manually (CTAB method), but did not succeed. I tried genomic DNA isolation kit from HiMedia, Genetix . Please, can you suggest to me a DNA isolation kit for Jatropha curcas.
Total RNA was extracted from leaf and callus tissue using an RNeasy Plant Mini Kit (Qiagen, Germany). mRNA was purified from the total RNA using Oligotex-dT30 (Takara Bio Inc., Japan). Sequencing was performed with a GS FLX Instrument (Roche Diagnostics) using the cDNA rapid library method according to the manufacturer's instructions.
