A total of 98,412 simple sequences repeats (SSRs) were identified from 1,696,570 transcripts of wheat de novo transcriptome assembly, while 4,261 repeats were present in compound formation. Out of 98,412 markers, there was abundance of mononucleotides- (37716), followed by di- (27697), tri- (29659), tetra- (2773), penta- (381), and hexa (186) nucleotide repeats.
