Abstract
Direct colony hybridization on agarose gel plate was established for the identification of recombinant plasmids. The hybridization of the probe to nucleic acids on dried gel without transferring to solid supports was more effective and simpler than hybridization of such probes to materials immobilized on filters such as nitrocellulose or nylon. D-cycloserine in overlaying agamse was essential for releasing the nucleic acids from colony.
