Chloroplast DNA Extraction from Herbaceous and Woody Plants for Direct Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism Analysis

The technique described here is a fast and simple method of extracting chloroplast DNA (cpDNA). It overcomes the need for differential centrifugation using density gradients. The leaves do not have to be kept in the dark and lyophilized before extraction, but lyophilization is still possible. The ch...
