INDIVIDUAL MCP TOOL

kasp_primer_design

Design KASP/ARMS allele-specific genotyping primers for a SNP: two allele-specific forward primers differing only at the 3' terminal base (one per allele), each with the standard KASP universal tail (FAM for allele A, HEX for allele B), a deliberate internal ARMS secondary mismatch near the 3' end whose strength complements that primer's own natural allele mismatch (strong↔weak), and one common downstream reverse primer sized to a chosen amplicon range.
