In silico serotyping of the Haemophilus influenzae capsule locus.

This subworkflow performs serotyping of Haemophilus influenzae by analyzing the capsule locus using hicap. The tool identifies capsule type and produces detailed annotations of the cap locus, including graphical representation in SVG format and annotation in GenBank format.
