Abstract

Expressed sequence tags (ESTs) are generated by single-pass DNA sequencing of clones obtained from cDNA libraries and are powerful tool in the genetic characterization of organisms, owing in large part to the speed and affordability of generating these sequences. Comparison of sequences obtained with those available in public sequence databases allows putative identification of many genes. (omitted)
