Looking to improve repeat classification in your genome? Try our new tool! It excels at classifying previously unclassifiable repeats in amphibians and other non-model eukaryotes 🧬🐶🐸🪱🦇🐟.
Excited to share Terrier 🧬✨🐶 — our new AI model to classify repetitive DNA. DNA repeats make up huge parts of genomes and play a key role in evolution, but are notoriously hard to classify. Preprint just released:
