Rice and bean SNP information system.

Single base polymorphisms or SNPs ("Single nucleotide polymorphisms") are the most common forms of genetic variation in eukaryotic genomes. Being stable and easily analyzed by automated methodologies, SNPs are rapidly replacing microsatellite markers or SSR ("Simple Sequence Repeats") as genetic markers. Among the tools used to identify these markers are re-sequencing and modern methods of bioinformatics. The provision and organization of a database of information derived from re-sequencing allows the exploration of these data in developing new markers (SNPs), which will serve as tools in exploring the diversity stored in germplasm banks, the mapping of QTLs in conducting association studies and, consequently, the discovery of new genes.
