LegumeSSRdb: A Comprehensive Microsatellite Marker Database of Legumes for Germplasm Characterization and Crop Improvement

Microsatellites, or simple sequence repeats (SSRs), are polymorphic loci that play a major role as molecular markers for genome analysis and plant breeding. The legume SSR database is a webserver which contains simple sequence repeats (SSRs) from genomes of 13 legume species. A total of 3,706,276 SS...

The user-friendly web interface allows users to browse SSRs based on the genomic region, chromosome, motif type, repeat motif sequence, frequency of motif, and advanced searches allow users to search based on chromosome location range and length of SSR. Users can give their desired flanking region around repeat and obtain the sequence, they can explore the genes in which the SSRs are present or the genes between which the SSRs are bound design custom primers, and perform <i>in silico</i> validation using PCR. An SSR prediction pipeline is implemented where the user can submit their genomic sequence to generate SSRs. This webserver will be frequently updated with more species, in time.
