Which command ro run MAKER pipeline for gene annotation ?

Hello everyone,

I am newbie using MAKER pipeline for genome annotation. I followed this tutorial to do the annotation for my assembled sequence. I generated 4 necessary files with maker -CTL, including: maker_bopts.ctl maker_evm.ctl maker_exe.ctl round1_maker_opts.ctl . I already set up parameter in the .ctl file (configuration file). But I don't know how to write command to run MAKER. I install MAKER 3.01.03 via conda.

In the tutorial, the author described like this: "construct the MAKER command in a Bash script so it is easy to run and keep track of.

cat round1_run_maker.sh
mpiexec -n 12 maker -base Bcon_rnd1 round1_maker_opts.ctl maker_bopts.ctl maker_exe.ctl

Then we run MAKER.

bash ./round1_run_maker.sh 2>&1 | tee round1_run_maker.log"

But I don't understand what is "Bcon_rnd1" in this command. Does anyone can help me How can I run MAKER? Thank you everyone for any suggestions.

run. command to makerpipeline.

Bcon_rnd1 is the -base parameter for the MAKER run - in this case it's 'just' the base name for output filenames. So everything will start with Bcon_rnd1 in the filename. In this case it probably means 'Boa constrictor round 1'.

Thank you, DR. Philipp for your response.

I run this script for MAKER:

#!/bin/bash

mpiexec -n 12 maker -base Oi_ERR3890951_round1 round1_maker_opts.ctl maker_bopts.ctl maker_exe.ctl

The command I run for this script:

bash ./Oi_ERR3890951_IRGSP_round1.sh 2>&1 | tee Oi_ERR3890951_round1_run_maker.log

But I got this error:

Do I need to install DFam ? I thought that DFam already inside MAKER pipeline (https://anaconda.org/bioconda/maker)
