Pilon on transcriptome assembly from tetraploid species #139

Hi! I have performed the transcriptome assembly of a tetraploid plant species using RNA-seq Illumina reads. After the transcriptome assembly I would like to perform the polishing of my transcriptome assembly with pilon.

Considering that my species is tetraploid, I was wondering which option I should set. Do you recommend to run pilon with the --diploid option or with default option?

Thank you.
