Precise isolation of high-quality RNA from leaves and storage roots of cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) for gene expression studies

Abstract Background The isolation of Ribonucleic Acid (RNA) from leaves and storage roots of cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) is a challenging one, due to the presence of large amounts of polyphenolic compounds, polysaccharides, and tuber proteins. RNA with high quality and intact integrity is vit...
