RepeatFiller newly identifies megabases of aligning repetitive sequences and improves annotations of conserved non-exonic elements
2019-07-09
Abstract excerpt
Transposons and other repetitive sequences make up a large part of complex genomes. Repetitive sequences can be co-opted into a variety of functions and thus provide a source for evolutionary novelty. However, comprehensively detecting ancestral repeats that align between species is difficult since considering all repeat-overlapping seeds in alignment methods that rely on the seed-and-extend heuristic results in p...
