Desiccation as a suitable alternative to cold-storage of phyllosphere samples for DNA-based microbial community analyses

Abstract The study of microbial communities of the plant phyllosphere in remote locations using DNA-based approaches is limited by the challenges associated with their preservation in the field and during transportation. Freezing is a common DNA preservation strategy, but it may be unsuitable for le...
