Abstract

EST sequencing has enable the Discovery of many new genes in a vast array of organisms, and the utility of this approach to the scientific community is greatly increase by the establishment of fully annotated databases. The present study aimed to identify sugarcane ESTs sequenced in the sugarcane expressed sequence tag (SUCEST) project that corresponded to signal transduction components. (AU)
