I have construct a repeat libraries using de-novo identification methods. All results from different tools has been combined into one fasta file.

How can I get the percentage of how much these sequences are found in the original genome? That has been used earlier for repeat detections.
For example these identified candidates account for 30% from the total genome.

I used repeatmasker with a flag -lib combinLibrary.fasta mygenome.fasta but its very slow now almost one week and still far to finish.

  • $\begingroup$ Do you want to know how much of the genome is in your sequences in a fasta file? What have you tried to do? Any perl/python/R/bash or other tools you have used or are familiar with? $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ Sorry I am not an expert on genome coverage. Perhaps if you link around in social networks you get more views and hopefully an answer. $\endgroup$
