DNA Extractions for adult homogenates of Porites Thermal Transplant Batch 7

DNA extractions for Porites Thermal Transplant ADULTS BATCH #7

Goal

To process DNA for Porites astreoides adult homogenates for the Thermal Transplant 2018 experiment using this protocol.

Samples

All samples were snap frozen, then airbrushed with filtered seawater. 0.5 mL of the homogenate was aliquoted then re-frozen at -80 °C. New samples indicate first extraction for that colony, redo indicates secondary extraction for that colony because the initial extraction had poor yields.
