The RAPD amplification mixture and cycling conditions were described elsewhere (Lambiase et al., 2006 (link)). The primer used was the 270 (5′-TGCGCGCGGG-3′). RAPD products were separated by electrophoresis in 1.5% agarose gel (Invitrogen Corporation, CA). Molecular size markers (Invitrogen Corporation) and negative control were included in all gels. Gels were stained with EtBr (at 0.5 μM) (Invitrogen Corporation) and captured with a DigiDoc-It (UVP) photographic system.
