We developed nearly 700 non-redundant 2- or 3-base simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers from tomato using sequence data obtained from open genome databases. Among various types of core motifs, AT was most abundant in SSRs derived from cDNAs (similar to 53%) and bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) ends (similar to 72%). There was a positive correlation between the rate of detection of polymorphic alleles (heterozygosity value; Hv) and the repeat number of the core motif in all markers showing polymorphisms among at least one pair of six cultivars or lines tested (r = 0.566**). The average Hv of BAC-end-derived SSR markers (similar to 0.5) was higher than that of cDNA-derived markers (similar to 0.3). These characteristics of BAC-end-derived SSRs are useful for genetic studies using closely related cultivars and lines. However, BAC-end-derived SSRs tended to cluster in centromeric regions (similar to 80%). A scheme for the construction of a high-density linkage map of tomato is discussed.
