Blast database #76

Open Artifice120 opened 3 months ago

Artifice120 commented 3 months ago

Afternoon,

Quick question, should the blast search be using the two genomes being compared as a database or should both genomes be used as queries for a blast search against a standard nr database?

After running a blast search using the two genomes as a database, I receive zero matches despite having many significant blast results.

command used

 ./MCScanX /lustre/isaac/scratch/jtorre28/homology-contigs
