A low-cost platform suitable for sequencing-based recovery of natural variation in understudied plants
Method Summary
The authors describe a suite of low-cost, do-it-yourself methods for field collection of plant tissues, extraction of genomic DNA suitable for next-generation sequencing and homemade agarose gel documentation suitable for DNA quantification. These methods enable the collection and preparation of samples for genomic analysis in regions with limited infrastructure.
