pcr on plant genomic

[oakeley]

The only problem is with too much carbohydrate as this can sometimes inhibit
Taq polymerase. The solution is to prepare the DNA using an extraction
procedure involving CTAB (which removes most of the CHO). After that it
ain't a problem - even with relatively crude extracts. I've done it enough
times even on callus material.

Email me if you need more details.
