MAPtools: command-line tools for mappingby-sequencing and QTL-Seq analysis and visualization

Abstract Background Classical mutagenesis is a powerful tool that has allowed researchers to elucidate the molecular and genetic basis of a plethora of processes in many model species. The integration of these methods with modern massively parallel sequencing techniques, initially in model species b...
