Identification and Characterization of Microsatellites in Expressed Sequence Tags and Their Cross Transferability in Different Plants

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 ident...
