Premise: Developing an effective and easy-to-use high-molecular-weight (HMW) DNA extraction method is essential for genomic research, especially in the era of third-generation sequencing. To efficiently use technologies capable of generating long-read sequences, it is important to maximize both the length and purity of the extracted DNA; however, this is frequently difficult to achieve with plant samples.
Methods And Results: We present a HMW DNA extraction method that combines (1) a nuclei extraction method followed by (2) a traditional cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) DNA extraction method for plants with optimized extraction conditions that influence HMW DNA recovery. Our protocol produced DNA fragments (percentage of fragments >20 kbp) that were, on average, ca. five times longer than those obtained using a commercial kit, and contaminants were removed more effectively.
Conclusions: This effective HMW DNA extraction protocol can be used as a standard protocol for a diverse array of taxa, which will enhance plant genomic research.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-1 (SARS-CoV-1) and -2 (SARS-CoV-2) are beta-coronaviruses (β-CoVs) that have caused significant morbidity and mortality worldwide. Therefore, a better understanding of host responses to β-CoVs would provide insights into the pathogenesis of these viruses to identify potential targets for medical countermeasures. In this study, our objective is to use a systems biology approach to explore the magnitude and scope of innate immune responses triggered by SARS-CoV-1 and -2 infection over time in pathologically relevant human lung epithelial cells (Calu-3/2B4 cells).
