A non-destructive enzymatic method to extract DNA from arthropod specimens: Implications for morphological and molecular studies.
There is a growing necessity to integrate morphological and genetic studies. This paper proposes a new technique that allows DNA extraction of arthropods while still keeping intact the entire morphology of the specimens. The technique uses Proteinase K to dissolve protein tissues and preserve the ch...
