The objective of this study was to optimize a DNA extraction protocol for obtaining high-quality DNA from preserved herbarium tissue. The improved protocol yielded DNA comparable in quality to commercially available kits and suitable for other applications. This simple and fast method utilizes standard laboratory-grade chemicals.
PremiseThe objective of this study was to optimize an existing DNA extraction protocol for recalcitrant plant taxa to obtain high-quality DNA from preserved herbarium tissue suitable for downstream PCR applications. Methods and ResultsLeaf tissue from 30 diverse plant species was obtained from the U.S. National Arboretum Herbarium. Our previous DNA extraction protocol (Gouker et al., 2020, Applications in Plant Sciences 8: e11403) was improved by use of 10X Tris-EDTA buffer, addition of polyvinylpolypyrrolidone, and omission of sample heating during homogenization, and resulted in total DNA yields ranging from 60-2460 ng. Optimized PCR amplification using universal plant primers for the ITS-p3/u4 region and the P6 loop of the trnL (UAA) chloroplast intron was successful for most specimens. ConclusionsThis protocol, which is simple, fast, and uses standard laboratory-grade chemicals, yields DNA from herbarium specimens that is comparable in quality to that from commercially available kits, and is of sufficient quality and quantity for other applications.
