v2.1.4
Novel features of BRAKER in v2.1.4 (compared to 2.1.2):
-
fully automated generation of track data hubs for display of BRAKER results with the UCSC Genome Browser using MakeHub (https://github.com/Gaius-Augustus/MakeHub)
-
random reduction of training data for AUGUSTUS if training set is bigger than 8000 genes
-
deletion of files that are typically not needed after a BRAKER run has finished successfully
-
improved integration of GeneMark-EX, e.g. new expert options --transmasked_fasta and --min_contig
-
improved integration of GeneMark-EX and AUGUSTUS in ETP mode (RNA-Seq & proteins as evidence)
-
option to replace NCBI BLAST by DIAMOND for speeding up a BRAKER run
-
migration from bam2wig binary (that used to cause compilation issues on many machines) to bamToWig.py
-
fixing of AUGUSTUS genes with spliced (= in frame) stop codons
-
--softwareCheck option if you don't want to run BRAKER but only check whether required software for your run is present
