Superior ab initio identification, annotation and characterisation of TEs and segmental duplications from genome assemblies.

Transposable Elements (TEs) are mobile DNA sequences that make up significant fractions of amniote genomes. However, they are difficult to detect and annotate ab initio because of their variable features, lengths and clade-specific variants. We have addressed this problem by refining and developing...
