Hi all,
we are having a similar issue. Did you ever come up with a solution to this?
Thanks,
Ramiro
No, unfortunately we have not.
Best wishes Bart

Hi @BartvdVossenberg , I was curious how do you determine the correct start of the 28S as well as the correct end of 5.8S.
I recently developed pybarrnap, which reimplements the equivalent functionality of barrnap in python and updates the Rfam model profiles to the latest version. In pybarrnap, no overlap occurs between eukaryotic 5.8S and 28S, so I think the old model profile in barrnap is the reason why it cannot accurately distinguish between 5.8S and 28S.
Example (barrnap vs pybarrnap)
Saccharomyces_cerevisiae.fna.gz
$ barrnap Saccharomyces_cerevisiae.fna -k euk -q # Overlap 5.8S and 28S

Dear Torsten Seemann,
I am an enthusiastic user of the barrnap tool. I work with both plant parasitic prokaryotes and eukaryotes. I noticed that when annotating eukaryotic rDNA sequences, the 18S and 5.8S predictions are accurate, but the 28S gene is consequently predicted to start just before the 5.8S gene (see image attached). As a result, the ITS2 and correct start of the 28S gene have to be determined manually. I can imagine the prediction if difficult as the start of 5.8S and 28S have high sequence similarity and share some key conserved sequences.
Is there some way to overcome this inconvenience?
Hope to hear from you. Best wishes, Bart
