Below are links to protocols. Some protocols can be found as pdfs at the bottom of the page. As similar protocols are shared with us, we will create reference records and links.

Protocols shared by Isabel Faci-Gomez and Cristobal Uauy, John Innes Centre:

(the pdfs of these protocols can be found at the bottom of the page)

  • How to grow wheat    This protocol explains how to grow wheat in controlled and semi-controlled environments from germination to harvest.     James Simmonds, Isabel Faci, Valentina Buffagni, Cristóbal Uauy, 2024.    Journal article page: https://dx.doi.org/10.17504/protocols.io.6qpvr37jbvmk/v1     GrainGenes reference page: PTC-2024:6qp   
  • Wheat inflorescence meristem micro-dissection   This protocol provides a method for micro-dissecting young wheat plants to access developing inflorescence (spike) meristems.     Isabel Faci, Anna Elisabeth Backhaus, Cristóbal Uauy, 2024.     Journal article page: https://dx.doi.org/10.17504/protocols.io.3byl49r2zgo5/v1     GrainGenes reference page: PTC-2024:3by   
  • Nuclei isolation from wheat meristems   This protocol describes how to isolate intact and clean nuclei from wheat meristem tissues (spikes and carpels/ovaries), specifically from flash-frozen tissues.     Isabel Faci, Maximillian RW Jones, Cristóbal Uauy, 2024.     Journal article page: https://dx.doi.org/10.17504/protocols.io.yxmvm3renl3p/v1     GrainGenes reference page: PTC-2024:xym   
  • Wheat high molecular weight DNA extraction     This protocol is for the extraction of high-molecular weight DNA from wheat leaf tissue, suitable for long-read sequencing (e.g, PacBio).     Maximillian RW Jones, Nikolai Adamski, Cristóbal Uauy 2024.     Journal article page: https://dx.doi.org/10.17504/protocols.io.bp2l6xpy1lqe/v1     GrainGenes reference page: PTC-2024:bp2   
  • RNA extraction from wheat stigmas   This protocol provides a method for extracting high-quality RNA from wheat stigmas which have been stored in DNA/RNA shield. It is suitable for field samples and tissues with high carbohydrate content.     Marina Millán Blánquez, 2022.     Journal article page: https://dx.doi.org/10.17504/protocols.io.36wgq7kj3vk5/v1     GrainGenes reference page: PTC-2022:36w
