+Amplicon is a tool for designing PCR primers where groups of related
+DNA sequences can be assessed in aligned form. Other useful features
+that are not common in other PCR primer design software are handling
+of gapped sequences and degenerate sites in aligned DNA. Amplicon can
+import aligned DNA sequences produced by Clustal, or aligned
+sequences in MEGA or Fasta format.
