[Coral-List] Sampling DNA from coral

[Magnus Johnson]

Dear Coral-list,

You are fabulous. I got lots of good advice about sampling coral for DNA which I will summarise and repost (anonimised I guess since they were direct posts to me).

Thanks all who responded. Cheers, Magnus

Subject: [Coral-List] Sampling DNA from coral


Hi All,

I'm about to go on an expedition (at short notice) where, for the first time, I will be sampling Coral for DNA analysis.  Its not something I've done before so, although I will scour the literature I'd appreciate any practical advice.  Ideally I'd like to take samples in the field and store in ETOH and deal with the samples back home on a well equipped lab.

Any pointers appreciated.

Thanks, Magnus
