software of duplicates in RNA-seq data

Hello,

I have already used star to mapping all the reads to the human genome.

Which software has the best perform in detecting duplicates in RNA-seq data?

Picard's MarkDuplicates, samtools' rmdup, dupradar or anything else?

Thanks in advance!

rna-seq

You can check this previous discussion: Samtools rmdup and Piccard Markduplicates
