CRISP 0.2 – Detection of SNVs and Short Insertion/deletion variants from Pooled high throughput DNA sequencing data

CRISP 0.2

:: DESCRIPTION

CRISP (Comprehensive Read analysis for Identification of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms from Pooled sequencing) is a software program to detect SNPs and short indels from pooled sequencing data generated using next-generation sequencing instruments. CRISP is designed to detect both rare and common variants by utilizing sequence reads from next-generation sequencing of multiple DNA pools.
