Hi

Finally, my rerun without splitting EDTA_raw.pl into subsets finished too :)

It's an amphidiploid plant genome, about 1GB in size, run with 15 threads, commit 757a96d (the one where MITEHunter is turned off)

It ran for 242.8 hours (10.1 days) if run sequentially (so no splitting up of EDTA_raw.pl steps)

Here's the whole log so you can see which steps took how long:

Wed Sep  4 21:07:28 AWST 2019   EDTA_raw: Check files and dependencies, prepare working directories.

Wed Sep  4 21:07:28 AWST 2019   Start to find LTR candidates.

Wed Sep  4 21:07:28 AWST 2019   Identify LTR retrotransposon candidates from scratch.

Tue Sep 10 00:34:18 AWST 2019   Finish finding LTR candidates.

Tue Sep 10 00:34:18 AWST 2019   Start to find TIR candidates.

Tue Sep 10 00:34:18 AWST 2019   Identify TIR candidates from scratch.

Species: others
rm: cannot remove `./TIR-Learner/*': No such file or directory
Finish finding TIR candidates.

Fri Sep 13 09:13:15 AWST 2019   Start to find MITE candidates.

Fri Sep 13 09:13:15 AWST 2019   Identify MITE candidates from scratch.

Fri Sep 13 09:13:15 AWST 2019   Warning: Because MITE-Hunter is too slow and only contribute limited new TIR candidates, it is taken down temporary until a better solution is found.

Fri Sep 13 09:13:15 AWST 2019   Finish finding MITE candidates.

Fri Sep 13 09:13:15 AWST 2019   Start to find Helitron candidates.

Fri Sep 13 09:13:15 AWST 2019   Identify Helitron candidates from scratch.

Fri Sep 13 23:32:36 AWST 2019   Finish finding Helitron candidates.

Fri Sep 13 23:32:36 AWST 2019   Execution of EDTA_raw.pl is finished!
Sun Sep 15 07:17:49 AWST 2019   EDTA basic and advcanced filters finished.

Sun Sep 15 07:17:49 AWST 2019   Perform EDTA final steps to generate a non-redundant comprehensive TE library:

                                Skip the RepeatModeler step (-sensitive 0).
Run EDTA.pl -step final -sensitive 1 if you want to use RepeatModeler.

Sun Sep 15 14:01:06 AWST 2019   EDTA final stage finished! Check out the final EDTA TE library: ragoo.fasta.EDTA.TElib.fa

Sizes:

size	raw_fa size
TIR	55M
MITE	55M (copy of TIR due to no MITEHunter)
LTR	12M
Helitron	23M
TElib	46M

The final TElib has 22,921 sequences.

Running a final RepeatMasker run with the final TElib gives me about 75% of the genome being repeats, which makes me very happy :) I should check how many of these repeats are known within Dfam and Repbase, my guess is not that many as a previous run with an older Repbase version gave me a much lower count of repeats

MUCH LATER EDIT:

I've now rerun the final stage with -sensitive 1, which turns on RepeatModeler, which takes forever. WIth the same genome as above:

Mon Sep 30 17:04:54 AWST 2019   Perform EDTA final steps to generate a non-redundant comprehensive TE library:

                                Use RepeatModeler to identify any remaining TEs that are missed by structure-based methods.

Sat Oct  5 14:51:32 AWST 2019   EDTA final stage finished! Check out the final EDTA TE library: ragoo.fasta.EDTA.TElib.fa 

So yeah, adding this step to my pipeline added 5 days of runtime! What this did is add 4,186 repeats of type 'unknown' to my TElib.fa, but these are all tiny (the total filesize increased from 46MB to 47MB). @oushujun is this a problem on my end? Should RepeatModeler have assigned classes to those repeats?

[elsemikk]

Thank you so much for making this awesome tool! It makes TA annotation so much easier and I will for sure use it for my next genomes.

I tried it on a bird (~1.2Gb) with -sensitive 0 and a custom protein library and got this result:

step	threads	Real time	User time	Number
Raw Helitron	8	605m16s	521m34s	146
Raw TIR	8	1425m38s	8438m38s	5108
Raw LTR	8	49.51s	81m16s	157
Rest of pipeline	23	79m27	1334m50s	5278

(It probably would have been faster if I had given more threads to the TIR search instead of splitting equally between the three searches!)

Thank you,
Else

[hkchi]

Thank you for the awesome tool. Successfully finished three plant genomes (~3-3.5 Gb):

Step	time	size
Raw LTR	114-128h	542-695Mb
Raw TIR	56-99h	743-790kb
Raw Helitron	36-60h	186-196Mb
Rest of pipeline	52-53h	56-66Mb

Raw steps run with EDTA v1.7.8 from bioconda, the rest with EDTA v1.8.5. All run with 48 threads (Intel Platinum 8160F Skylake @ 2.1Ghz, RAM=192000M), --sensitive 0 in the FINAL step and CDS provided.

Cheers,

Thank you all for using and promoting EDTA since its early stage. As for now, the program has gained some popularity, and works using EDTA have been showing up online. This thread can be retired. Below are some studies citing EDTA:

Dear all, Shujun

Thank you for the awesome tool. Successfully finished one plant （Rhododendron）genome (~850M):

size	raw_fa size	Percent
TIR	143M	15.7%
LTR	660M	43.2%
Helitron	15M	1.6%
TElib	16.9M	60.96%（Total）

command
EDTA.pl --genome genome.fa --anno 1 --threads 40 --step all --species others

The sub-item time is not very clear (it was interrupted several times in the middle), and the total time is about 20h.

Sincerely,
Wen

Hi,

Thanks for developing such a cool software,I have successfully annotated the TEs of an insect genome.

But I want to known if the library constructed by EDTA could be used as the consensus sequences for calculating the age of individual TEs?

Thank you,
Yang yi

Dear Yang Yi, Thanks for using EDTA. Unfortunately it does not generate consensus sequences. Those in the library are nonredundant sequences taken directly from TEs. Best, Shujun
