What does "non-redundant genomic sequence dataset" mean?

[TopNattapat]

Hello,

I have read the paper "Identification of SNP and SSR markers in
eggplant using RAD tag sequencing"

http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2164/12/304

and I don't understand the meaning of "non-redundant genomic
sequence dataset" in abstract

Could you help me, please?

Thank you very much for your help

A non-redundant dataset is one where a single entry isn't repeated. For example, you are searching for something in a database and you find the same thing but in 2 different entries. That would mean there is redundancy within the dataset. A non-redundant database would be where there is only one entry

do you know about "custom-made perl script" in RNA Seq analysis? is it a software?

Not sure what reference this question is in but generally a perl script is a program written in Perl (a text processing programming language) for a specific purpose (custom part).

That seems to be completely unrelated to this thread. In such situations, I suggest you create a new post rather than adding to an old and irrelevant thread.

Thanks for your reply in a paper: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/art...e.0129422.s001
they have written:
"GC counts of transcripts were determined using a custom-made perl script".
I couldnt underestand diffinition of "custom-made perl script"
many thanks

"GC counts of transcripts were determined using a custom-made perl script".

It means that indeed, they made a program that I guess takes each sequence, counst how many G and C's are and using a formula, calculates the percentage of GC in a whole sequence.

Perl is a programming language.
