In the present study, we linearly ordered the majority of mapped ESTs of wheat with in deletion bins by aligning them to corresponding scaffold sequences of group 3 chromosomes. However, assignment of scaffold to the deletion-bins were determined, order of scaffolds (by end to end matching) along the chromosome will need to be established in near future. The linear order of mapped ESTs within chromosome bins of 3A, 3B, and 3D in the present study may provide useful information for fine mapping, map-based cloning of QTL/gene(s) located on group 3 chromosomes.
