However, gelam germ plasm is still underutilized leading to be threatened by their extinction. Natural population of gelam can be found in peat area in Kepulauan Meranti, Riau. Molecular genetic analysis of gelam germ plasm may facilitate to genetic conservation and genetic improvement of the population. DNA isolation is the most important step in the molecular-based analysis. Therefore, we aimed to isolate genomic DNA using DNA extraction kit (Genomic DNA Mini Kit (Plant) Geneaid). Result of the study showed that genomic DNA successfully extracted from gelam young leaves. It indicates that DNA extraction kit is powerful to provide DNA template for further analysisenGelamGeneAidDNAMelaleuca leucadendrapeatArticle
