Mapping target bisulfite sequencing reads to a reference

Hi,

I'm looking for software to map the sequencing reads from bisulfite treated synthetic DNA to a reference sequence. What I'm interested to get is the alignment to the reference, since I need to process the data further to extract preferred methylation sites.Do you know any software that would be suitable for this?

Thanks a lot in advance,
Tomek

segemehl if working with CpG

Bismark if working with CpG and non canonical methylations as in plant CHH CHG

BSMAP

Some more are available, but these are popular

QuasR library in R. The alignment portion in both QuasR and Bismark is actually performed by Bowtie.
