What you can do:
Search for plant EST and cDNA sequences from this comprehensive collection.
Highlights:
  • The TIGR Plant Transcript Assemblies (TA) uses expressed sequences collected from the NCBI GenBank Nucleotide database for the construction of transcript assemblies, which include expressed sequence tags (ESTs) and full-length and partial cDNAs, but exclude computationally predicted gene sequences.
  • The EST and cDNA sequences are first clustered based on an all-versus-all pairwise sequence comparison, followed by the generation of consensus sequences (TAs) from individual clusters.
  • The UniProt Reference Clusters (UniRef100) protein database is used as the reference database for the functional annotation of the assemblies.
  • Assemblies can be retrieved by a text-based keyword search or a sequence-based BLAST search.
  • The current version of the TA database (Feb, 2007) and includes a total of 233 plant species, for each species more than 1000 EST or cDNA sequences are publicly available.
Keywords:
  • plant transcripts
  • plant mRNA sequences
