Analysis of orchid genes could facilitate orchid improvement. Bacterial artificial chromosome BAC end sequences BESs can provide the first glimpses into the sequence composition of a novel genome and can yield molecular markers for use in genetic mapping and breeding. Results We used two BAC libraries constructed using the BamHI and HindIII restriction enzymes of Phalaenopsis equestris to generate pair-end sequences from 2 920 BAC clones and from the BamHI and HindIII libraries respectively at a success rate of . A total of 5 535 BESs were generated representing Mb or about of the Phalaenopsis genome. The trimmed sequences ranged from 123 to 1 397 base pairs bp in size with an average edited read length of 821 bp. When these BESs were subjected to sequence homology searches it was found that 641 were predicted to represent protein-encoding regions whereas 1 272 contained repetitive DNA. Most of the repetitive DNA sequences were gypsy- and copia-like retrotransposons and respectively whereas only were DNA transposons. Further 950 potential simple sequence repeats SSRs were discovered. Dinucleotides were the most abundant repeat motifs AT TA dimer repeats were the most frequent SSRs representing 253 of all identified SSRs. Microsynteny analysis revealed that more BESs mapped to the whole-genome sequences of poplar than to those of grape or Arabidopsis and even fewer mapped to the rice genome. .
