Overview
Tomato and capsicum breeding relies on DNA markers from young leaf tissue at every stage of selection.
The IsoBind Tomato & Capsicum Leaf DNA Kit is developed for these two crops rather than adapted from a general plant method, so every stage of selection works from leaf DNA extracted with a method made for these crops.
Key benefits
Two crops, one kit
Leaf from tomato and capsicum is handled the same way, so one stock of reagents serves both programmes.
DNA for marker-assisted selection
Leaf DNA suits genotyping and marker-assisted selection in tomato and capsicum breeding.
No instrument to buy
Tomato and capsicum DNA extraction runs on a standard microcentrifuge, with no extraction instrument to buy.
No fridge space needed
The kit stores at 15 to 25 °C.
How it works
Tomato or capsicum leaf is homogenised and lysed, then the DNA is bound to the silica spin column, washed and eluted.
