[maker-devel] Qusetion about the ab initio gene predictors result

[nanshan yang]

Hi MAKER community :

I have questions about MAKER output files.I get result from ab initio gene predictors which use snap and augustus by maker,and after fasta_merge step,there are some fasta files as:

result.maker.augustus_masked.proteins.fasta
result.maker.augustus_masked.transcripts.fasta
result.maker.augustus.proteins.fasta
result.maker.augustus.transcripts.fasta
result.maker.non_overlapping_ab_initio.proteins.fasta
result.maker.non_overlapping_ab_initio.transcripts.fasta

result.maker.snap.proteins.fasta

result.maker.snap_masked..transcripts.fasta 

result.maker.snap_masked..proteins.fasta

result.maker.snap.transcripts.fasta 

result.maker.proteins.fasta
result.maker.transcripts.fasta

if i continue to analysis the fasta files,which fasta should i choose?

because i choose ab initio gene predictors,so the   result .maker.non_overlapping_ab_initio*fasta can be uesed into the downstream analysis？or the  result.maker.proteins.fasta

Thanks verymuch for any help or insights
