KASPspoon

KASPspoon

A tool for high-throughput single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotyping. It simulates a PCR and then compares in vitro and in silico PCR results. The tool reports amplimers close to or adjoining genes, SNPs, simple sequence repeats, and those that are shared between in vitro and in silico PCR results for selection of the most appropriate amplimers. It also compares physical and genetic maps to report the primer set genome coverage for PCR-walking.
