Molecular Diversity of miR390-Guided Transacting siRNA Precursor Genes in Lower Land Plants: Experimental Approach and Bioinformatics Analysis

Figure 1

Analysis of PCR products in 1.5% agarose gel. Amplification of genomic DNA sequences flanked by miR390 sites. (a) PCR products were obtained on genomic DNAs with moss-specific primers. Orthotrichum pumilum (1), Coscinodon humilis (2), Pylaisia polyantha (3), Homalothecium philippeanum (5), Sphagnum girgensohnii (6), Sphagnum squarrosum (7), and Selaginella kraussiana (8). (4), DNA size markers including bands ranging from 100 bp to 1000 bp with 100 bp step and 1500 bp band (Sibenzyme). (b) PCR products were obtained on genomic DNAs with the internal transcribed spacer-specific (ITS2-specific) primers [14] as a control of genomic DNA preparation quality. Lane numbering corresponds to those in (a).
