duplicate and close variants of the same alignment in the output

[azat-badretdin]

When I use these parameters:

 ./miniprot -G 100 -O 10 -J 34 -F 30 --gff -ut32 nucleotide.fasta proteins.fasta

I get very close variants of the same alignment:

gpipedev21:issue-34$ grep WP_004242317 miniprot.gff  | grep PAF

This also expresses itself, maybe, in duplication of some alignment output. For example:

The alignments are the same, but the Rank=x value is different in each case.

These two different hits. For now, you have to filter them out by yourself.

[azat-badretdin]

Thanks. Which example are you talking about? Or both?

[lh3]

Both

[azat-badretdin]

For now

This seems that there is a hope that the hits will be on per region in the future?
