摘要
We have developed a much-improved method for isolating RNA from tobacco tissue. The novel component of the described RNA isolation method is the addition of lithium chloride to the extraction buffer. Following that, the RNA was homogenized with phenol/chloroform and precipitated in ethanol. This isolation technique provided highly reproducible and good quality RNA within 2 h.
