Abstract
TRAMP is a software package for generating transposon maps that are us ed for DNA sequencing. The package provides a variety of automated too ls that can always be overridden by the user. The central part of the package is its selection algorithm that finds the most robust map with the smallest number of inserts. TRAMP has been in daily use by the se quencing team at LBL since it was introduced in the Spring of 1994. It is applicable to any sequencing project utilizing the directed strate gy.
