SNP Pipeline for Beowulf Clusters:

A pipeline of open source software extended to run on multiple CPU architectures that can be used to mine large EST datasets for SNPs and identify restriction sites for assaying the SNPs so that cost-effective CAPS assays can be developed for SNP genotyping. Tools in the pipeline include MegaBlast, PCAP, Polybayes, SNP2CAPS besides glue code and parsing scripts in Python.
