Isolation of high-quality mitochondrial DNA(mtDNA) is an important premise for researching molecular mechanisms in cytoplasmic male sterility of cabbage(Brassica oleracea L.var.capitata). An efficient protocol for separation and purification of mitochondria and extraction of mitochondrial DNA(mtDNA) from etiolated tissues of cabbage was developed. We took a method combined mannitol density gradient with differential centrifugation, selected appropriate rotational speed, extended DNase I treating time and changed mitochondria cracking condition. The results showed that the extracted mitochondria in this protocol had complete structure, appeared to ellipsoid and had not been contaminated with other impurities under the Jannus Green B staining. The isolated mitochondrial DNA had high purity and yield through detecting the optical density, nuclear specific primer PCR and agarose gel electrophoresis. The results indicated that mitochondrial DNA extracted by this protocol had high quality and enabled to be used in futher genetic studies.
