Mining and gene ontology based annotation of SSR markers from expressed sequence tags of Humulus lupulus
نویسندگان
چکیده
Humulus lupulus is commonly known as hops, a member of the family moraceae. Currently many projects are underway leading to the accumulation of voluminous genomic and expressed sequence tag sequences in public databases. The genetically characterized domains in these databases are limited due to non-availability of reliable molecular markers. The large data of EST sequences are available in hops. The simple sequence repeat markers extracted from EST data are used as molecular markers for genetic characterization, in the present study. 25,495 EST sequences were examined and assembled to get full-length sequences. Maximum frequency distribution was shown by mononucleotide SSR motifs i.e. 60.44% in contig and 62.16% in singleton where as minimum frequency are observed for hexanucleotide SSR in contig (0.09%) and pentanucleotide SSR in singletons (0.12%). Maximum trinucleotide motifs code for Glutamic acid (GAA) while AT/TA were the most frequent repeat of dinucleotide SSRs. Flanking primer pairs were designed in-silico for the SSR containing sequences. Functional categorization of SSRs containing sequences was done through gene ontology terms like biological process, cellular component and molecular function.

Mining of SSR markers from Expressed Sequence Tags of bamboo species
With the ever increasing number of Expressed Sequence Tags (ESTs) from various sequencing projects, ESTs have become valuable and first-hand source of in-silico mining of simple sequence repeats (SSR) markers. We examined a total of 3419 EST sequences from three bamboo species, namely, Phyllostachys edulis, Bambusa oldhamii and Dendrocalamus sinicus for the presence of di- to hexa- microsatelli...

Expressed sequence tags (EST) are potential source for the development of genic microsatellite markers, gene discovery, comparative genomics, and other genomic studies. In the present study, 7630 ESTs were examined from NCBI for SSR identification and characterization. A total of 263 SSRs were identified with an average density of one SSR/4.2 kb (3.4% frequency). Analysis revealed that trinucle...

Background: Expressed sequence tags (ESTs) are sequences of cDNA fragments prepared from different tissue sources. There are over one million of these sequences in the publicly available database, and these sequences are believed to represent more than half of all human genes. The ESTs belong to different cDNA libraries, was prepared from one particular cell type, organ, or tumor. Therefore, th...

Expressed sequence tags simple sequence repeats (EST-SSRs) are important sources for investigation of genetic diversity and molecular marker development. Similar to genomic SSRs, the EST-SSRs are useful markers for many applications in genetics and plant breeding such as genetic diversity analysis, molecular mapping and cross-transferability across related species and genera. In spite of low po...
