fungi reads #11

Dear RAPT developers, The documentation explicitly says that RAPT handles bacterial or archaeal reads, but I wonder whether fungi reads (even being from eukaryotic) can be processed also. Thank yout in advance for the reply.

Hi! Unfortunately, RAPT is not suitable for fungi. The assembler was developed for (small) prokaryotic genomes and the annotation pipeline that RAP uses is very much tailored for proks and will produce hideous results for eukaryotes.
