AFLP®
Amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP®) is a technique originally developed for plant-breeding applications, but is now employed universally as a method for fingerprinting DNA from any source. Read the AFLP® application note on plant mapping.
Plant Nucleic Acid Purification
Life Technologies offers an expansive portfolio of kits, reagents, and devices for the isolation, purification, analysis, and quantitation of plant genomic DNA, total RNA, mRNA, and microRNA or transcriptome RNA.
Custom Gene Expression Assays
TaqMan® Gene Expression Assays
We offer hundreds of inventoried, made-to-order, plant-specific TaqMan® Gene Expression Assays that can be customized to your specifications.
MicroRNA and non-coding RNA TaqMan® Assays
Inventoried TaqMan® MicroRNA Assays are available for several species, including Arabidopsis. These assays are aligned with the Sanger miRBase Registry. If you can’t find the assay you need from our stocked list, you can design your own Assay.
