[Question] ANI values #83

Open mewu3 opened 3 years ago

mewu3 commented 3 years ago

Hello everyone,

if the ANI < 80% is not calculated, then why in my output files i see there are some values that are ~ 70 ? Also i don't quite understand the "sequence fragments" notion here, in my output file i always get 1 or 2 in the last two columns. (all my input are complete genome)

Thank you in advance.

i'd also be interested in this - what is the threshold for reporting values? it's described as 'much below 80%' in the readme but that isn't particularly helpful as some values below 80% are reported whilst others are shown as 'NA'
