Resumen
The available methods Lo isolate specific amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) markers can be used only if markers are detected by radioactive labeling, silver staining, or ethidium bromide staining; these methods are useless if modem and automated genetic analyzers are used to detect AFLP markers by fluorescent labeling. We have developed a method that allows for isolation and cloning of specific AFLP markers obtained with a laser-induced fluorescence capillary electrophoresis system. This procedure has been tested on 5 Arabidopsis thaliana polymorphic AFLP markers, and the nucleotide sequences obtained from these cloned markers were identified and located in the Arabidopsis genome. © 2005 International Society for Plant Molecular Biology.
