Description

edta website  

This package is developed for automated whole-genome de-novo TE annotation and benchmarking the annotation performance of TE libraries.

For the initial search of TE candidates, LTRharvest, LTR_FINDER_parallel, and LTR_retriever are incorporated in this package to identify LTR retrotransposons; GenericRepeatFinder, TIR-Learner, and MITE-Hunter are incorporated in this package to identify TIR transposons (a subclass of DNA transposons); HelitronScanner is incorporated in this package to identify Helitron transposons (a subclass of DNA transposons); and finally RepeatModeler is used to identify any TEs missed by these structure-based programs (such as SINEs and LINEs).

The EDTA package was designed to filter out false discoveries in raw TE candidates and generate a high-quality non-redundant TE library for whole-genome TE annotations. Selection of initial search programs were based on benckmarkings on the annotation performance using a manually curated TE library in the rice genome.

For benchmarking of a testing TE library, a curated TE annotation (v6.9.5) is provided for the rice genome (TIGR7/MSU7 version). You may use the lib-test.pl script to compare the annotation performance of your method/library to the already tested methods.
