What is the best method for DNA isolation from fish samples? Any experience and/or tips how to improve yield of genomic DNA from fish samples? What tissue is the best source? How much DNA is possible isolate from from fish meat?
Fish sample is not different from other matrices. Phenol chloroform or any silica column based isolation (plenty commercial kits available) will work. If you can choose tissue - go for the low fat one (ie definitely not adipose tissue). Blood, liver or muscle are probably tissues of first choice.
