Protocols for SNP Markers

PCR

The PCR setup to for all SNP markers is as follows:

Reagent Stock conc. Vol. (ul) per rxn rxn conc.
Promega Buffer* 10X 1.5 1X
MgCl2 25mM 1.8 3mM
dNTPs 1.25mM 2.4 0.2mM
Template DNA 10ng/ul 1.5 15ng (1ng/l)
Primer 5uM 1 0.3uM
Taq ? 0.4 ~1 U
H2O   6.4  
Total   15  

*Progema PCR buffer w/o MgCl2

PCR reaction conditions were as follows:

Initial melting of

    94oC for 5min

35 cycles of:

    94oC for 30sec

    XoC for 45sec

    72oC for 1min

Then final extension of

    72oC for 6min

Where XoC is the annealing temperature depending on the marker.

 

Gel Electrophoresis

All SNP markers from this project can be resolved on 1.6% agarose gels run in Staub lab gel boxes (OWL Gator A3) at 180V for 2 hours.  Ladder used was Promega 100 bp ladder (cat#G2101) (see photo below)
