| Abstract: | For construction of chickpea genomic library, DNA was isolated, purified on CsCl gradient and size fractionated into 15-20 Kb fragments after restriction with Sau 3A. These fragments were ligated to phage lambda (EMBL-3) vector and the recombinant molecules packaged in vitro into viable phage particles. The recombinant phages were obtained as phages on a P2 lysogen of E. coli (Spi- selection) and amplified to establish a permanent library. This is the first report of the construction of chickpea genomic library. |
