A second generation framework for the analysis of microsatellites in expressed sequence tags and the development of EST-SSR markers for a conifer, Cryptomeria japonica

Table 2 SSR motifs and their frequency in 3′ UTR, 5′ UTR and coding regions

SSR location was estimated by inferring coding regions using the prot4EST pipeline [44] and the fasty35 module of the FASTA package [49]. Some of the locations were un-determined because the corresponding SSRs extended over both coding and non-coding regions.
