SkIf is a comparative genomics tool that detect genomic regions (from SNPs to genomic islands) specifically associated to a group of organisms (defined by the user).

SkIf can be employed to extract a specific genomic region related to a trait of interest.

How does SkIf works ?

SkIf was developed in C ++ and sequence reading is done using Bio++ bpp-seq library.
