Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Identification of selected isolates was done by testing their morphological and biochemical characteristics. Taxonomic determination of isolates was done initially by 16S rRNA gene sequencing [56 (link)], and confirmed by genome sequencing. Platinum Taq DNA Polymerase High Fidelity (Thermo Fisher Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) was used to amplify the gene for 16S rRNA using a GeneAmp PCR System 2700 thermal cycler (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA, USA) under the conditions listed in S1A Table. PCR products were checked on a 1% agarose gel (at a constant voltage of 80 V) and purified using a Thermo Scientific PCR Purification Kit (Thermo Scientific, Lithuania) according to the manufacturer’s protocol and sequenced and identified by using BLAST.
Pulse field gel electrophoresis (PFGE) was performed for isolates comparison and for strain determination, as described previously [57 (link)] using NotI macro-restriction polymorphism.

SNP-based markers were developed for the detection of the SNP G to C at position 173,473,513 of the sunflower genome sequence (https://www.heliagene.org/HanXRQ-SUNRISE/, [15 (link)]). This SNP was found in the sequence of the PPR621, a pentatricopeptide repeat candidate gene. Created SNP-based markers, PPR621.5M and PPR621.5R, consist of allele-specific primers, two forward and one common reverse primer (Supplementary Table S6). In addition, a second SNP G to A was present in the forward primer sequence, which was detected at the position 173,473,493 of the sunflower genome (Supplementary Table S2). Primers were designed by use of program Primer3 (http://bioinfo.ut.ee/primer3-0.4.0/). PCR mixture (15 µL) used for amplification was the same as with the PAMSA marker (except that in this reaction only two primers were added to the mixture). Amplification was performed in Applied Biosystems GeneAmp® PCR System 2700 Thermal Cycler under the following conditions: 2 min denaturation at 94 °С, followed by 30 cycles; 30 sec denaturation at 94 °С, 30 sec annealing at 62 °С, 1 min polymerization at 72 °С; followed by a final 4 min period of elongation at 72 °С.

The amplification of DNA was carried out in a GeneAmp PCR system 2700 thermal cycler (Applied Biosystems, USA). PCR targeting the rfbEO157 gene was optimized at 95°C for 15 min; 30 cycles of 94°C for 30s, 56°C for 1 min and 72°C for 1 min; and a final extension of 72°C for 10 min.

Genetic Diversity Assessment of V. pycnotelma

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
In 2012 and 2013, leaf samples from 131 adult individuals were collected from sites same as those from where the herbarium specimens had been collected (Figs. 1c and2). The samples were used to estimate the genetic diversity among the extant populations (Table 2). At all sites, we comprehensively collected samples from each entire patch. Because V. pycnotelma at Site e was locally extinct, we collected leaf samples from a neighbouring population located one kilometre away. The number of individuals was counted at each site.
Genomic DNA was extracted using a modified cetyltrimethylammonium bromide method (Milligan 1992) . The genotypes of each individual, including wild populations and specimens' seedlings, were characterized at nine microsatellite loci. Seven of the nine loci were characterized by Nakahama et al. (2012) : Vpy002, Vpy006, Vpy012, Vpy013, Vpy16, Vpy018 andVpy022 loci were carried out using a GeneAmp PCR System 2700 thermal cycler (Applied Biosystems, Tokyo, Japan) using the following conditions: initial denaturation at 95°C for 15 min, followed by 25 cycles of 30 s at 94°C, 1.5 min at 57°C and 1 min at 72°C, and a final extension for 30 min at 60°C. The PCR product size was measured using an ABI PRISM 3130 Genetic Analyzer (Applied Biosystems) and GeneMapper ver. 4.1 (Applied Biosystems).

Total genomic DNA samples were extracted from the leaves of two dried specimen (Voucher Nos. KIMJH20121 and KIMJH20122) with a MG Plant Genomic DNA Extraction SV Miniprep kit (MGmed, Seoul, Korea) according to the manufacturer's instruction. We used PCR amplification for the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) of nuclear ribosomal DNA, and we chose primers designed in previous studies (White et al., 1990; Jin et al., 2019) . We conducted PCR with a GeneAmp PCR System 2700 Thermal Cycler (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA, USA). The PCR reaction mixture included the MG 2× Taq MasterMix with a dye (MGmed), 10 ng of DNA, 0.3 µM primers, and distilled water. Conditions included initial denaturation at 94 o C for 3 min followed by 30 cycles each at 94 o C for 30 s, 53 o C for 45 s, and 72 o C for 1 min. The total volume was 50 µL. The PCR products were visualized on 2% agarose gels, which were then processed with a MG PCR purification kit (MGmed). Sequencing was conducted with MACROGEN (Macrogen Inc., Seoul, Korea), and two sequences of Korean D. paniculatum were identical. The sequence identified in this study was deposited into the GenBank database (MW740337).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
