+ <longdescription>
+ Primer3 picks primers for PCR reactions, considering: oligonucleotide
+ melting temperature, size, GC content, and primer-dimer possibilities;
+ PCR product size; positional constraints within the source sequence;
+ and miscellaneous other constraints. All of these criteria are
+ user-specifiable as constraints, and some are specifiable as terms in
+ an objective function that characterizes an optimal primer pair.
