The proposed protocol offers an efficient, economic and rapid
(can be completed within ~3 h by a moderately experienced worker)
procedure that can be used by molecular biology laboratories
for the reliable isolation of RNA from strawberry plant tissues, suitable
for an array of downstream applications. Furthermore, the
method can be applied to other recalcitrant plant species displaying
high amount of secondary metabolites, while it can also be modified
to provide sufficient quality amounts of genomic DNA extraction for
