The aim of the clustering is to remove redundancy, to use sequence similarity to link ESTs and a pre-partitioning of the set of ESTs for later assembly (figure). attachment: file.png

Groups will be created, ideally as much as the number of genes represented by the ESTs. Each group will contain only ESTs from one single gene (gene oriented clustering).
