Full‐length cDNA of OsRDR3 was amplified from Oryza sativa indica Pusa Basmati 1 (PB1) callus and cloned into the pGEM‐T easy vector (Promega). For generating RDR3 OE lines of rice, RDR3 (coding sequence of 2499 bp; 832 aa) was cloned into the pCAMBIA1300 vector. RDR3 amiR construct was designed using WMD tool (http://wmd2.weigelworld.org).

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
We used a sequence predicted to code for a Galectin protein in the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus purpuratus database (accession number XP_781871.1) for BLAST screening against P. lividus EST databases available at NCBI and MPIMG (http://goblet.molgen.mpg.de/cgi-bin/webapps/paracentrotus.cgi). Three overlapping P. lividus EST clones were identified and used to design specific primers (MWG, Heidelberg, Germany). Purified total RNA extracted from the gastrula stage was used to amplify by One Step RT-PCR (Invitrogen), a partial sequence of the 5′ CDS region. We used a 3′RACE kit (Invitrogen) to identify the 3′-terminal end of the sequence. The amplification products were cloned in the pGEM-T-Easy Vector (Promega) and sequenced (MWG, Heidelberg, Germany). The full-length 1309nt sequence was deposited to the EMBL databank, Acc Num: FR716469. New primers were designed to obtain by RT-PCR the amplification of the complete CDS (5′-ATGGCATACCCATACCCACAAGC-3′ as forward and 5′-GCACCCGAAAAATCATCCCTAC-3′ as reverse), which was cloned in the pGEM-T-Easy vector (Promega) and re-sequenced for validation. The obtained recombinant plasmid was referred to as pGEM-T-Easy-Pl-galectin-8.

Freshly hatched J2s of M. incognita were collected and total RNA was isolated using NucleoSpin RNA extraction kit (Macherey-Nagel, Germany). RNA quality and quantity was analyzed using NanoDrop-2000 (Thermo Fisher Scientific, United States) and about 500 ng of total RNA was reverse transcribed to complementary DNA (cDNA) with cDNA synthesis Kit (Superscript VILO, Invitrogen, United States).
To design the primers for FLPs, sequences of Mi-flp1 (KC517344.1), Mi-flp12 (AY804187.1), and Mi-flp18 (AY729022.1) of M. incognita available in GenBank were used and aligned in the ClustalX version 1.81 (Thompson et al., 1997 (link)). Conserved nucleotide sequences were used and primers were designed using IDT OligoAnalyzer, and primer sequences are given in Supplementary Table S1. Selected genes were PCR amplified from cDNA and cloned into pGEM-T easy vector (Promega, United States) and confirmed the target gene inserts by sequencing. Selected sequences of Mi-flp1, Mi-flp12, and Mi-flp18 were further used for designing the fusion gene cassette by placing the three sequences continuously and synthesized artificially by Biomatik Custom Gene Synthesis (Biomatik Technologies, United States) and sub-cloned into pGEM-T easy vector (Promega, United States).

To characterize CP genes of TFMs and NFMs, we amplified a segment of CPs via nested PCR using primers shown in S1 Table. Primers were designed based on nucleotide sequences of a conserved region of CPs of Dermanyssus gallinae (HZ459284, KR697573) and other mite species including Varroa destructor (XM 022808259, XM 022835169), and Metaseiulus occidentalis (XM 018640260). Amplified fragments were cloned into a pGEMT easy vector (Promega, Madison, WI, USA) and nucleotide sequences were analyzed using a Beckman CEQ GeXP automated sequencer (Beckman Coulter Inc., Brea, CA). Based on partial sequences of CPs of TFMs and NFMs, we designed primers for 3′ and 5′ RACE to amplify the open reading frames (ORFs) of CPs. We performed 3′ and 5′ RACE PCR using the RACE system (Invitrogen) in accordance with the manufacturer’s protocol. 5′ and 3′ RACE PCR products were separated via agarose gel electrophoresis, purified, cloned into the pGEMT-Easy vector (Promega), and transformed into competent DH5α Escherichia coli cells.

For in vitro processing, the bands corresponding to oligonucleotides in the vicinity of 21 nt were eluted from gel slices and coprecipitated with glycogen. A 5′ adaptor and a 3′ adaptor were ligated to the RNA cleavage products sequentially. Reverse transcription-PCR (RT-PCR) was carried out with the adaptor-ligated RNA cleavage products. PCR fragments were cloned into the pGEM-T-easy vector (Promega) and sequenced with M13F primer. Sequences were analyzed with Vector NTI software (Invitrogen).
For 5′ RACE PCR, RNA samples were isolated from the seedlings of Col, hyl1-2 and hyl1-3. Hundred picomoles of 5′ adaptor (rGrUrUrCrArGrArGrUrUrCrUrArCrArGrUrCrCrGrArCrGrArUrC) were directly ligated with 5 μg of total RNA. After ligation, first-strand cDNAs were synthesized using Superscript III Reverse Transcriptase (Invitrogen) and an RNA-specific primer (5′ RACE outer reverse). The cDNA was treated with RNase H to remove the RNA strand and amplified in two rounds using two sets of primers (5′ RACE outer forward and 5′ RACE outer reverse, and 5′ RACE inner forward and 5′ RACE inner reverse). The distinct PCR products were cloned into the pGEM-T-easy vector (Promega) and sequenced using either M13 forward or M13 reverse primers.

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.
