TreeSNPs: a laboratory information management system (LIMS) dedicated to SNP discovery in trees

TreeSNPs is a laboratory information management system with a user-friendly Web interface for the gathering and display of data generated through medium- to large-scale single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) identification by resequencing, in the context of whole genome association, outlier detection, quantitative trait locus, and genetic mapping studies. Its multi-gene approach allows the tracking of all the steps from candidate gene classification and prioritization to SNP discovery. The system, source code, and documentation are available for download at http://treesnps-pub.arborea.ulaval.ca:3000/download. An online demo version can also be accessed from the above link.
