The alkaline lysis method for linear plasmid DNA is used to isolate the plasmid DNA from Rhizoctonia solani CHU341. The plasmids in fourteen strains of R. solani were tested.It indicates that 11 strains of the fungi contain plasmid. The size of the extracted plasmid, pCHU341, is about 2.6 kb and some strains have dimer-type plasmids. DNAs of R. solani were extracted by two ways: 1. Extracting total DNA in order to get much amount of plasmid DNA for restriction enzymes mapping study. 2. Using the alkaline lysis method for DNA cloning,it reduces the contamination from chromosomal DNA. The purified DNA of pCHU341 was digested with restriction enzymes. The DNA was subcloned and sequenced with the ing vector. The BamH I fragment of pCHU341 has beenin 564bp. In order to clone the terminal fragment of pCHU341, the methods of polymerase chain reaction and single primer to amplify the DNA of terminal fragment of pCHU341 were used.The probability and practicality of these two methods to clone the terminal fragment DNA of pCHU341 were discussed.
