Isolation of quality total RNA from the aromatic plant Origanum onites.

Z Naturforsch C 65(3-4):266-70 (2010) PMID 20469647

We successfully used the guanidine isothiocyanate method for isolation of total RNA from leaf, stem, and root tissues of the aromatic plant Origanum onites. The RNA was extracted with TRI Reagent at room temperature and was recovered by isopropanol precipitation. The isolated RNA was capable of reverse transcription. The extraction method described here does not require ultracentrifugation, and it is fast, simple, and effective. The procedure can be completed within 3 hours and may be applicable to other aromatic medicinal plants containing high amounts of phenolic compounds.

    The equilibrium size distribution function of clusters (nanoparticles) in the system of finite number of molecules (atoms) in finite closed volume with constant total energy (isolated system) is found using methods of statistical thermodynamics. The distribution function is found from kinetic equat...

    Based on the abundant genetic diversity, weak population structure and relatedness and relatively fast LD decay, we concluded that this core collection is suitable for AM studies targeting multiple agronomic and quality traits aiming at the improvement of flax as a true dual purpose crop. Our genomi...
