66753the root of E. przewalskiiEphedra przewalskiiKumtag Desert, XinjiangChinaCHNAsianutrient agar plates and R2A agar5-7 days30The roots of E. przewalskii were collected from the Kumtag Desert, Xinjiang, PR China. The root surface was sterilized as previously described, with some modifications. Samples were washed with tap water and sterilized with 70 % ethanol for 30 s, then immersed in 2.0 % sodium hypochlorite solution for 10-15 min, followed by three or four rinses with sterile distilled water. Sterilized roots (1 g) were ground with a sterile mortar and pestle and serially diluted in sterile distilled water, then incubated on nutrient agar plates and R2A agar plates at 30°C for 5-7 days.
