Repetitive DNA elements are ubiquitous in plant genomes. Although repeats provide relevant information for cytogenetic, evolutionary, and genomic studies, identifying and characterizing their sequence and chromosomal distribution are not always easily achieved through conventional methods. However, a high-throughput identification of genomic repeats can be obtained with short reads from next-generation sequencing data. Here, we identified the telomeric and two chromosome-specific repeats in

Miniature transposable elements (mTEs) such as miniature inverted-repeat transposable element (MITE), terminal repeat retrotransposon in miniature, and short interspersed element are exquisite sources for marker development. mTEs are short, non-autonomous and stably inherited. The high-copy members are widely distributed into the gene rich euchromatic regions. Here, we conducted a modified transposon display (TD) for a high-copy MITE family, BraSto-2 (Bs2). The Bs2-specific primers derived from conserved sequences of Bs2 members as well as
