Although this crop is very important to both the developed and developing world as a means of dietary protein supply resources available in common bean are limited. Global transcriptome analysis is important to better understand gene expression genetic variation and gene structure annotation in addition to other important features. However the number and description of common bean sequences are very limited which greatly inhibits genome and transcriptome research. Here we used 454 pyrosequencing to obtain a substantial transcriptome dataset for common bean. Results We obtained 1 692 972 reads with an average read length of 207 nucleotides nt . These reads were assembled into 59 295 unigenes including 39 572 contigs and 19 723 singletons in addition to 35 328 singletons less than 100 bp. Comparing the unigenes to common bean ESTs deposited in GenBank we found that or 31 664 of these unigenes had no matches to this dataset and can be considered as new common bean transcripts. Functional annotation of the unigenes carried out by Gene Ontology assignments from hits to Arabidopsis and soybean indicated coverage of a broad range of GO categories. The common bean unigenes were also compared to the bean bacterial artificial chromosome BAC end sequences and a total of 21 of the unigenes 12 724 including 9 199 contigs and 3 256 singletons match to the 8 823 BAC-end sequences. In addition a large number of simple sequence repeats SSRs and transcription factors were also identified in this study. Conclusions This work provides
