Abstract

DNA extraction is a very important step for DNA genetic analysis in peach palm (Bactris gasipaes Kunth.). The aim of this work was to develop a methodology of DNA extraction. Fresh, frozen and dried leaves were utilized. DNA from fresh leaves were purified one time while frozen and dried leaves was purified two times. DNA bands were coloured intensively showing a high amount of purified DNA and with an excellent resolution in agarosis gel 2%, such for fresh leaves as much as for frozen and dried leaves.
