easily distinguishable using gel electrophoresis for PCR products, we used them because neither loci will express any fixation or any loss of an allele in small populations (Leicht and McAllister, 2006). Like in any biological field we used a Polymerase Chain Reaction (or PCR for short), which is used to amplify “specific DNA

1.Introduction The objectives of this study were to determine the correct identity of the plant Sarracenia leucophylla using a series of molecular biology techniques. Phylogenetic analysis and genetic sequencing alignment was used to further confirm its identity in addition to construct a maximum parsimony tree. Sarracenia leucophylla, or the crimson pitcher plant, is a carnivorous plant in the Family Sarraceniaceae. The species is endemic to the Southeastern region of the United States and resides

Material and method Plant materials Extensive field visit and collection was undertaken during 2010-2014 throughout the country and six geographical populations were identified for L. nervosum varieties (Table 1). From each populations four to five individuals were selected and identified based on the descriptions provided in different references such as Flora Iranica (Rechinger, 1974) and Flora of Iran ( Sharifnia & Assadi, 2001).The voucher specimens were deposited in the herbarium of Shahid Beheshti

pellet of bacterial that remains separated from the DNA. The next step is amplify the DNA and that could be done by Readymix and PCR method the Polymerase chain reaction, you can amplify specific regions of DNA in the organism genome catalyzing the replication of specific regions, in this process you need five essential components that are the DNA polymerase (enzyme that catalysis the DNA syntheses process), DNA template, DNA with target sequence, Primers (sequence of single-stranded DNA

specimen alone the specificity was 97% (88% to 99%) (p. 23). The authors estimated the cost-effectiveness by using a hypothetical cohort of 1000 people, in comparing the current practice of polymerase chain reaction testing and CRT. The findings showed CRTs costs more than 100 pounds more than the polymerase chain reaction testing (p.

Polymerase Chain Reaction is a lab technique used to amplify DNA sequences. This lab involves using a small sample of genetic material we obtained from our cheek cells and amplifying that segment of DNA so you can determine if you are a homozygous, heterozygous, or non taster of phenylthiocarbamide(PTC) . I think I am a homozygous recessive nontaster AVI-AVI because I didn’t taste anything when tasting the PTC paper. Part one of this lab was DNA isolation. I got each tube needed along with a paper

10 THE DEVELOPMENT AND ANALYSIS OF MICROSATELLITE DNA Summary Due to the significant negative impact of the industrial activities on the habitat, many species have become endangered. To conserve the species, a thorough investigation is needed. In this case, the research is based on the study the interdependencies between the genotype and spatial dispersal of populations. Despite being endangered, turtles comprise rather specific object for such investigations, as well as any other long-lived organisms

Photolabile nucleobase protection has been used to achieve exquisite control over biological processes through light regulation, also referred as photocaging. The concept was introduced by Engels (Engels and Schlaeger, 1977; Engels and Reidys, 1978) and independently by Hofmann (Kaplan et al., 1978). Watson–Crick base pairing is blocked by caging groups, completely preventing oligonucleotide duplex formation. Duplex formation is restored when irradiated by light at a specfic wavelength. Photolabile

test food. Our goal was to find out whether the test food was GMO positive or negative and to record data accordingly. I hypothesized that the test food will be GMO positive. To see if my hypothesis had been correct we performed the process of PCR (Polymerase Chain Reaction), to find the presence of GMO positive or negative DNA in the foods. We first extracted the DNA from the foods, and then added primers to the DNA as well. I then inserted the DNA onto a gel using a micropipette. Using gel electrophoresis
