A case study with medicago spp. ispublished: pub subjects: s2.13 full_text_status: restricted keywords: bioinformatics, genetic markers, repeat motifs, simple sequence repeats, SSR abstract: Simple sequence repeats (SSR) or microsatellites are becoming standard DNA markers for plant genome analysis and are being used as markers in marker assisted breeding. De novo generation of microsatellite markers through laboratory-based screening of SSR-enriched genomic libraries is highly time consuming and expensive. An alternative is to screen the public databases of related model species where abundant sequence data is already available. All the genomic sequences of Medicago from the public domain database were searched and analysed for di, tri and tetra nucleotide repeats. Of the total 156 000 sequences which were searched, 7325 sequences contained repeat motif and may yield SSR which will yield product sizes of around 200 bp. Of these, the most abundantly found repeats were the trinucleotide (5210) group. Except for a very small proportion (436), these link to the gene annotation database at TIGR (http://www.tigr.org). To facilitate further exploration of this resource, a dynamic database with options to search and link to other resources is available at (http://www.icrisat.org/text/research/ grep/homepage/genomics/medssrs1.asp) and on CDs from V.Mahalakshmi@cgiar.org date: 2002 date_type: published publication: Electronic Journal of Biotechnology volume: 5 number: 3 publisher: Universidad Católica de Valparaíso - Chile pagerange: 233-242 refereed: TRUE issn: 0717-3458 official_url: http://www.ejbiotechnology.info/content/vol5/issue3/full/2/bip/ related_url_url: http://scholar.google.co.in/scholar?as_q=Genomic+sequence+derived+simple+sequence+repeats+markers&as_epq=&as_oq=&as_eq=&as_occt=title&as_sauthors=&as_publication=&as_ylo=&as_yhi=&btnG=&hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C5 related_url_type: pub citation: Mahalakshmi, V and Aparna, P and Ramadevi, S and Ortiz, R (2002) Genomic sequence derived simple sequence repeats markers.
