Figure 1

Nonrandom distribution of SSRs. Observed (black bars) and expected (white bars) counts of repeats of each sequence motif. Data are grouped by genomic library and by SSR motif size: (A) BAC library dinucleotide repeats and trinucleotide repeats, top and bottom, respectively; (B) EST library dinucleotide repeats and trinucleotide repeats, top and bottom, respectively. Observed values are based on posterior probability distribution of SSR motifs. BAC library SSRs show an excess of AT-rich repeat motifs, while EST library SSRs show a deficit of AT and CG motifs.
