Dear

Yes sure. I used RNA-later to preserve leaves and spikes of barley for a few months. Later, I extracted DNA and RNA from leaves and spikes respectively. I faced no problem.

Thanks Wosene! Did you sequence whole genomes out of it?

Dear Gabriel

The DNA, yes. RNA was meant for RNAseq but we did not sequence it because of budget constraint.

Hi Gabriel,

Yes. We collected different types of fish tissue (muscle, fin clips or the entire fish in the case of a small bodied fish) and preserved in RNA-later. We extracted DNA for whole genome sequencing and we obtained good quantities of high molecular weight DNA. The genome sequencing is being done now.
