This software facilitates free and open source examination of genomic repeats.
AAARF is a powerful software tool for identifying sequence overlaps in small shotgun sequence datasets. With its numerous adjustable parameters, the program walks out identified overlaps to create long pseudomolecules representing the most abundant repeats in a genome.
One of the strongest features of AAARF is that it is entirely written in Perl, making it a flexible and easily modifiable solution for bioinformaticians who need to adapt their analysis pipeline to meet specific requirements.
However, it should be noted that AAARF is licensed and distributed under the terms of the GNU Library or Lesser General Public License (LGPL). While this open-source license allows for wide distribution and modification of the code, it may also place certain restrictions on how the software can be used or distributed. As such, users should carefully consider their needs and rights before implementing AAARF into their research workflows.
