DEVELOPMENT, IMPLEMENTATION OF AN EFFICIENT AND CHEAP METHOD FOR DNA EXTRACTION FROM DRY LEAVES OF DATE PALM WITHOUT USING LIQUID NITROGEN

Date palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.) is the most significant economic fruit tree planted in Iraq. DNA isolation is one of the most important steps in the application of molecular biology, especially dependent on PCR and other techniques. The difficulty of DNA extracting from palm tissue could be because the solidity and high content of polyphenolic …
