As expected, Rho1 serves as an effective positive control for image-based assays, as treatment with Rho1 dsRNA results in a binuclear phenotype readily detectable using a DNA dye and any marker that defines the cell body.
PCR genotyping was carried out using a DNA bulk-pool from 36 ghd10/NJ06 F2 individuals with the mutant phenotype, and a total of 136 SSR and STS markers scattered among all of the rice chromosomes were used to determine the approximate map position of the ghd10 locus on the rice chromosomes according to Temnykh et al. (2000) and McCouch et al. (2002).
DNA was purified using a DNA purification kit (Qiagen).

Four states have forbidden the use of DNA phenotyping in criminal investigations.
To enable precise phenotyping for heat stress tolerance, we used a controlled phenotyping facility available at ICAR-Indian Institute of Wheat and Barley Research, Karnal, India.
The Mut+ phenotype of Pichia pastoris recombinants was confirmed by PCR with 5′AOX and 3′AOX primers using DNA from the Pichia pastoris transformant as the template that was extracted using a Yeast Genomic DNA Extraction kit (Tiangen, Beijing, China).
DNA was extracted using a Qiagen kit (QIAamp ® DNA micro).
Using DNA sequencing and phenotyping of F1s from interclonal crosses they were able to demonstrate that, in the case of one of these six A. pisum lineages, dietary arginine requirements were determined by a mutation in the argC gene of its Buchnera endosymbiont.
Note Verily is working on a similar program to build tools, possibly including smartphones, that can recognize behaviors of mental illness using a method known as digital phenotyping.
