Premise Efficient protocols for extracting high‐molecular‐weight (HMW) DNA from ferns facilitate the long‐read sequencing of their large and complex genomes. Here, we perform two cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB)‐based protocols to extract HMW DNA

Cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB)-based methods are widely used to isolate DNA from plant tissues, but the unique chemical composition of secondary metabolites among plant species has necessitated optimization. Research articles often cite a "modified"

Premise: The use of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) is an effective and inexpensive method of extracting DNA from plants. The CTAB protocol is frequently modified to optimize DNA extractions, but experimental approaches rarely perturb a single variable
