# Species compatibility table for Ribo Zero Plant

TruSeq Stranded Total RNA with Ribo-Zero Plant has been laboratory tested with Arabidopsis, corn, maize, rice, soybean, and wheat samples, but may be applicable to a variety of species.

The following table lists organisms which have been laboratory tested and are fully supported by Illumina, tested *in silico*, or reported to work by non-Illumina lab. Illumina cannot guarantee rRNA removal based on *in silico* or non-Illumina lab reported results.

This table can also be found on the [Stranded Total RNA Species Compatibility Tables webpage](https://www.illumina.com/products/selection-tools/truseq-total-rna-species-compatibility.html).

# Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation

If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter:

```
GET https://knowledge.illumina.com/library-preparation/rna-library-prep/library-preparation-rna-library-prep-reference_material-list/000002096.md?ask=<question>
```

The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
