BaitsTools: software for hybridization capture bait design

Abstract

Nucleic acid hybridization capture is a principal technology in molecular ecology and genomics. Bait design, however, is a non-trivial task and few resources currently exist to automate the process. Here, I present BaitsTools, an open-source, user-friendly software package to facilitate the design of nucleic acid baits for hybridization capture. This article is protected by copyright.
