Abstract: Two cDNA subtractive libraries of Monascus were constructed by suppression subtractive hybridization(SSH) and screened of correlative genes from the citrinin biosynthetic pathway in Monascus species. All clones in the two libraries were sequenced and the results were analyzed by bioinformatic softwares. There were 8 homologous ESTs in both libraries. Comparing with other ESTs by BLAST, these ESTs were novel, and were accepted by Genbank.

Key words: Monascus, citrinin, SSH, subtractive cDNA library
