The S. haematobium genome project
This project is conducted under within the SCORE project coordinated by Dan Colley (University of Georgia, USA). 454 runs were produced to give a 0.5 to 1X coverage of the genome of S. haematobium. Isolates were collected in Zanzibar, processed at the Natural History Museum in London, sent for sequencing at the University of Georgia and then for analysis at FIOCRUZ, Brazil.
The main groups involved are:
Centro de Pesquisas René Rachou - FIOCRUZ and CEBio, Belo Horizonte, MG, Brazil
Guilherme Oliveira
Adhemar Zerlotini
University of Georgia, Athens, GA, USA
Travis Glenn
The Natural History Museum, London, UK
David Rollinson

You can use 'tablet' open the reads mapping file (.sam) together with the S. mansoni genome (.fasta) and then use the button "Import features" to load the .gff file containing the microsatellites and primers.
After loading the data you can simply select a contig, click on the 'Features' tab and sort the features by name.
This way the microsatellites and primers will be grouped together.
The column name also contains the primer sequence and the melting temperature.
