Abstract

A new approach is stated for obtaining full size cDNA molecules which is based on the Okayama-Berg cloning technique. The properties of poly/A/+mRNA from barley endosperms and scheme of obtaining cDNA are described. This cDNA was inserted in plasmid and cloned. Transformation allowed selecting about 2x103 clones.
