LSAT is a web-based microsatellite SSR marker designer tool specific for the Liliaceae family. It is developed using HTML, CSS, PHP, Perl and Java scripts. It works without extra add-ons on standard browsers. LSAT provides SSR primer designing service using the web interface. It helps in SSR mining and primer design. LSAT is user friendly with customizable search parameters producing visual output having download options. The current version of LSAT is backed by two data sets, namely, lily EST (Expressed Sequence Tag) from NCBI and lily nr (non redundant) with 4,099 and 216,768 unigenes, respectively. LSAT will be updated regularly upon availability of additional data (either EST and/or transcriptome) on Liliaceae. AVAILABILITY: LSAT is available for free at http://210.110.86.160/Lsat/Lsat.html.
