Abstract

Molecular analyses for the study of microbial community often depend on the direct extraction of the mega-genome DNA from pit mud. The present work compared six different methods to extract the mega-genome DNA from pit mud, and investigated the relationship between the quantity and the diversity of the mega-genome DNA. Using the six different extraction methods, the DNA ranged from 3.18 to 20.17 ng DNA/μL. Both the quantity and the diversity of the mega-genome DNA, the “repeated freezing and thawing” method is superior to other five methods, so it is the best choice for the extraction of mega-genome DNA from pit mud.
