FASTA program discussion list

[Feyruz Yalcin <>]

Hi,

Can you please explain why glsearch36 would output hits with zero % identity 
such the one below with such a significant e-value?

"
(…)
query target  0.00    1680    1679    1680    1       1680    2129365 2131043 
2.6e-35 52.0
(…)
"

This is how I ran the program:
$ glsearch36 query.fasta target.fasta -n -H -O glsearch.out.3 -m 8


My 'query.fasta' and 'target.fasta' files are both in fasta format and are 
composed of nucleotide sequences.


Kind regards,
F. Yalcin
