Summary: We have developed an online program, WCLUSTAG, for tag SNP selection that allows the user to specify variable tagging thresholds for different SNPs. Tag SNPs are selected such that a SNP with user-specified tagging threshold C will have a minimum R2 of C with at least one tag SNP. This flexible feature is useful for researchers who wish to prioritize genomic regions or SNPs in an association study.#R##N##R##N#Availability: The online WCLUSTAG program is available at http://bioinfo.hku.hk/wclustag/#R##N##R##N#Contact: mng@math.hkbu.edu.hk
