Species-specific sequences were analyzed from a single Coffea genome (Coffea pseudozanguebariae) associated with clustered or nonclustered AFLP loci of known genetic position. Compared with the expressed sequence tag (EST) sequence composition, their AT content exhibited a bimodal distribution with AT-poor sequences corresponding mainly to putative coding sequences. AT-rich sequences, apart from the EST distribution, were usually clustered on the genetic map and might correspond to noncoding sequences. Conversion of these AFLP markers into sequence-characterized amplified region (SCAR) anchor markers allowed us to assess sequence conservation within Coffea species with respect to species relatedness. %$ 076
