Total DNA was extracted from trifoliolate leaves of the parents and the F2 population by the CTAB method (Murray and Thompson 1980 (link)). A total of 94 F2 plants were randomly selected and used for analysis, because PCR reaction plates and the electrophoresis apparatus were designed for multiples of 96 samples (94 F2 plants and two parents). SSR markers developed by USDA (Song et al. 2004 (link)) or by the Kazusa DNA Research Institute (Hisano et al. 2007 (link)) were used for screening of polymorphisms between the parents. The PCR mixture contained 20 ng of genomic DNA, 2.25 pmol of primer, 625 pmol of nucleotides, and 0.125 unit of ExTaq in 1 × ExTaq Buffer supplied by the manufacturer (Takara Bio, Ohtsu, Japan) in a total volume of 5 μL. An initial 4 min denaturation at 95°C was followed by 35 cycles of 1 min denaturation at 95°C, 1 min annealing at 49°C, and 1 min extension at 68°C. PCR was performed in an Applied Biosystems 9700 thermal cycler (Applied Biosystems, Foster City, CA). PCR products were separated in 8% nondenaturing acrylamide gels, and the fragments were visualized by staining with ethidium bromide. To investigate the possibility of outcrossing, SSR marker genotypes of Harosoy-E5 (5 markers for each MLG) were compared with Harosoy (recurrent parent) and PI 80837 (donor parent).

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.
