Short Description of Library:
The cDNA library was constructed from mRNA isolated from fully expanded leaves of greenhouse grown plants that were 2 week old.The library was prepared using the Life Technologies pSuperScript cDNA library construction kit. Complementary DNA was synthesized from mRNA using a poly (dT) sequence with a Not I restrictions site. Sal I linkers adapters were ligated to the blunt-ended cDNA fragments followed by Not I digestion. The cDNA fragments were directionally cloned into the Not I-Sal I restriction site of the pSPORT 1 vector. The ligated cDNA fragments were transformed into E. coli ElectroMax DH10B host cells. This record shows additional ligation.

Transformation efficiency: 105
Percent white colonies: 98%
Average insert size of white colonies: 850 bp

Genotype/Cultivar:
Williams

Organ/Tissue:
Fully expanded leaves of 2 week old greenhouse grown plants

Vector Information:
The cDNA library was prepared using the pSPORT 1 vector (Life Technologies) to generate a plasmid library. The vector provides ampicillin resistance and allows blue-white color selection for recombinant plasmids. The vector also contains unique Sal I and Not I sites needed to clone cDNA directionally. The cloned cDNA fragment can be amplified by the polymerase chain reaction using one of the following vector primer pair combinations: M13 universal and M13 reverse or T7 and SP6.
