However, genomic DNA isolation from sponges is often hindered by abundant secondary metabolites. Here, we optimized a CTAB-based DNA extraction protocol by adjusting the concentrations of CTAB, SDS, and proteinase K. The optimized extraction buffer (4% CTAB, 1% SDS, and 5 µg/mL proteinase K) substantially improved DNA yield and purity. Applied to six sponge specimens from the Con Dao Islands, the protocol yielded DNA concentrations exceeding 200 ng/µL from 100–300 mg of tissue, with purity ratios indicative of high-quality DNA. DNA integrity was confirmed by successful PCR amplification of the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) gene fragment. Sequence analyses corroborated morphological identifications and enabled species-level assignment of four specimens. Together, these results demonstrate that the optimized extraction protocol provides a reliable and effective approach for obtaining high-quality genomic DNA from sponges, thereby facilitating molecular identification and supporting taxonomic and phylogenetic studies of marine sponges.","AbstractOtherLang":null,"BibLvlCode":"AS","StandardTitle":"DNA isolation for PCR amplification and molecular identification of marine sponges collected in Con Dao Islands, Vietnam","OrigTitleLangCode":"en","OrigTitleLangCodeExtended":"eng","OrigTitleLangID":15,"DateLastModified":{"date":"2026-01-29 01:33:22.127204","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+01:00"},"AuthorKeywords":"Marine sponges, Con Dao Islands, DNA isolation, molecular identification, cytochrome c oxidase subunit I","OtherDescriptors":null,"Notes":null,"AnaPub":2025,"MonPub":null,"DateUpdate":"2026-01-22","DateCreate":"2026-01-22","SecASFANote":null,"ConfID":null,"PeerRev":1,"VlizCoreFlag":1,"WoScode":null,"VABBcode":null,"OpenAcc":1,"DOI":"10.15625/2615-9023/22947"},"refs":null,"anarec":{"AnaID":437330,"PubliDate":2025,"Pagination":"113-128","XtraPublOfAnaID":null,"ISBN":null,"Volume":"47","Issue":"4","BRefMon":null,"BRefMonRR":null,"BRefXtra":null,"BRefXtraRR":null,"SerBRefID":330764,"SerRR":"Academia Journal of Biology.
