Summary: Coffee is one of the most important agricultural products in the world market. The mode of coffee processing, whether wet or dry, determines the flavor characteristic and also the seed quality. Quality RNA isolation is a mandatory requirement for studies of gene expression, including reverse transcriptase (RT), real-time quantitative PCR (RT-qPCR), construction of cDNA libraries, or microarray analyses. Due to the presence of secondary metabolites, polysaccharides, and polyphenols, standardization of a quality RNA extraction for different coffee plant tissue is very difficult. Also, getting high-quality RNA may be complicated because of RNA susceptibility to RNase degradation.
