Sequence-related amplified polymorphism is established on Open Reading Frames (ORFs) originated from genome sequence data of Arabidopsis. This molecular marker has been used for transcriptome map construction and comparative genome analysis of transcribed genes, which provides foundations for differential expression analysis at transcriptional level. SRAP markers show relatively more informative bands both at the DNA level and at the cDNA level, thus providing a more comprehensive indication of the degree of polymorphism in the genome.
