Question

Can anyone suggest a freely available software to detect synonymous and nonsynonymous SNPs within a gene?

I know that the software CodonCode is able to do that? Does anybody know if DnaSP has this feature? The sequences I use, were derived from conventional Sanger sequencing.

    U can go for PLINK too

    DNAsp is a suitable tool if you have only a few pieces of sequences. But if you want to perform the analysis on a large batch of data, like several hundreds of genes, some tools based on Linux would help.

    Variant effect predictor from Ensembl, it does have a web based access. It includes HGVS and HGNC. Official nomenclature for variant and genes.
    Good luck . LEt me know how you find it.

    You may use on the web site Mutalyzer the variant description extractor (https://mutalyzer.nl/descriptionExtract). It will allow you to compare your observe sequence with the reference sequence. It will include variant description with HGVS nomenclature.

    Variant effect predictor from Ensembl does not include any plant species, so I cannot use it :( but thanks for your suggestion.
