Table 5.
Estimated total repetitive DNA in T. castaneum genome assembly
| Tools | Percentage of genome masked | Percentage of masked genome overlapping with RepeatScout |
|---|---|---|
| RepeatScout | 25.7 | N/A |
| TRF | 4.9 | 1.5 |
| TEpipe | 5.8 | 5.2 |
| Total | 36.4 | 6.7 |
| Total repetitive DNA in Tribolium genome | 36.4 - 6.7 = 29.7 | |
