The SeqSelector toolset is a suite of user-friendly, platform independent python scripts to facilitate selection of sequences for targeted enrichment of next-generation libraries through hybridization-based sequence capture. The scripts require no knowledge of programming, and can be applied to genome sequences of model or non-model species. We suggest a workflow in which genes of interest are first identified from previous studies and publicly available datasets of functional gene annotation. Once a list of candidate genes has been identified, their sequences are selected from the reference genome. These sequences are used as a query during a BLAST search of the unannotated genome of a non-model species, and then the corresponding sequences are returned, which can be used to design baits for hybridization-based sequence capture.
