Abstract excerpt
Computational screening of the chromosome-4 sequence of the rice cultivar Nipponbare ( Oryza sativa L. japonica) revealed 1,844 tandem simple sequence repeats (SSRs) or microsatellites with SSR motifs >/=20 bp and repeated unit length of 1-6 base pairs. Thus SSRs occur once in every 18.8 kb, on the average, on the chromosome with one SSR per 23.8 kb and 16 kb on the short and long arms, respectively. No SSR was...
