Abstract:Microsatellites are the markers of choice due to their high abundance reproducibility, degree of polymorphism and co-dominant nature. These are mainly used for studying the genetic variability in different species and Marker assisted selection. Expressed Sequence Tags (ESTs) serve as the main resource for Simple Sequence Repeats (SSRs). The computational approach for detecting SSRs and developing SSR markers from EST-SSRs is preferred over the conventional methods as it reduces time and cost to a great extent. The available EST sequence databases, various web interfaces and standalone tools provide the platform for an easy analysis of the EST sequences leading to the development of potential EST-SSR Markers. This paper is an overview of in silico approach to develop SSR Markers from the EST sequence using some of the most efficient tools that are available freely for academic purpose.
Keywords:Bioinformatics   EST-SSR   in silico approach   Microsatellites   SSR Markers
