kSNP4 does SNP discovery and SNP annotation from whole genomes
kSNP4 identifies the pan-genome SNPs in a set of genome sequences, and estimates phylogenetic trees based upon those SNPs. SNP discovery is based on k-mer analysis, and requires no multiple sequence alignment or the selection of a reference genome, so kSNP4 can take 100's of microbial genomes as input. A SNP locus is defined by an oligo of length k surrounding a central SNP allele. kSNP4 can analyze both complete (finished) genomes and unfinished genomes in assembled contigs or raw...
