Current progress on number of wheat ESTs generated from each cDNA libraries can be found at cDNA libraries page. The average EST read length for each cDNA libraries is shown in the
histogram below.
All the EST data are publicly available and can be accessed and downloaded from Wheat EST data page.
Information on EST assembly is available at Wheat EST
Assembly page. A summarized table with number of contigs and unassembled ESTs within each library, and number of
ESTs unique to each library after global phrap analysis can be found in the Library Redundancy table
Progress on Deletion Mapping
Current progress on deletion mapping can be found in the Mapping
Progress
table. The status of mapping activity in each mapping lab can be accessed here. The thermometer indicator below indicates the total number of
ESTs mapped to date. For detailed information on deletion lines, mapping probes and mapping results, go

Progress on Bioinformatics Activity
The activity log of the Project's bioinformatics programmer can be found here.
Wheat EST Database development - Users can choose different query methods to access information
on EST data, their BLAST hits, contig assembly results and deletion mapping data generated in the
project so far.
