Protocol describes a method for in ovo transfection of avian embryos with double-stranded RNA (dsRNA). The dsRNA is injected into the spinal cord of the embryo. Subsequent electroporation facilitates the cellular uptake of the dsRNA molecules. - [Read Injection of dsRNA and Electroporation in Avian Embryos Protocol]
Protocol describes a method for in ovo transfection of avian embryos with double-stranded RNA (dsRNA). The dsRNA is injected into the spinal cord of the embryo. Subsequent electroporation facilitates the cellular uptake of the dsRNA molecules. It may be necessary to optimize the stage of the embryo and the electroporation procedure to improve the effectiveness of in ovo RNAi—cell competence changes with differentiation. - [Read Injection of dsRNA and Electroporation in Avian Embryos Protocol]
Protocol was developed to isolate Wolbachia from adult Drosophila, but it can be adapted for other insects. In some insects leg removal prior to isolation facilitates hemolymph extrusion. - [Read Isolation of Live Bacteria from Adult Insects Protocol]
Quick and reliable method to analyze meiotic segregation patterns in Coprinus cinereus using the polymerase chain reaction. The advantages of this method include: 1. The tissue is grown and lyophilized in the same tube, which facilitates the simultaneous analysis of many segregants. 2. Only one extraction step is necessary. 3. The markers are scored by gel electrophoresis, thereby bypassing Southern analysis. - [Read Method to Analyze Meiotic Segregation Patterns in Coprinus cinereus Using PCR]
