Abstract excerpt
Highly polymorphic markers, such as microsatellites, are invaluable for the study of natural populations. However, contemporary methods for genotyping highly polymorphic variants have serious drawbacks that impede their efficiency. We created Polly, an R package with C++ source code that uses Illumina short-read data to genotype microsatellites, detect highly polymorphic variants and identify clusters of highly...
