LiftOff generates better BUSCO scores than LiftOn
Hi there,
I was testing LiftOff and LiftOn to see which one is "best" for genome annotation. I was looking at some RefSeq genomes, lifting the brown-headed cowbird and red-winged blackbird onto the bronzed cowbird. Interestingly, in both cases LiftOff created better BUSCO scores and LiftOn also generated some weird features where the end coordinate of the feature was earlier than the start coordinate. Although LiftOff generated better BUSCO scores, GFFCompare suggested that the LiftOn genome had more matching transcripts, but the precision was a tad lower. As a result, I feel I trust LiftOff more as an annotation tool and wanted to bring these results to your attention.
Here is my BUSCO score for LiftOff, brown-headed cowbird on bronzed cowbird:
