## README

## BUSCOv5 - Benchmarking sets of Universal Single-Copy Orthologs.

For full documentation please consult the user guide: https://busco.ezlab.org/busco_userguide.html

Main changes in v5:

- Metaeuk is used as default gene predictor for eukaryote pipeline. Augustus is maintained and can be used optionally instead of Metaeuk.
- Introduction of batch mode: input argument can be a folder containing input files
- The folder structure has changed, so if doing a manual installation, make sure to completely remove any previous versions of BUSCO before installing v5.

### Installation

#### Conda
Conda installation instructions are in the userguide here:
https://busco.ezlab.org/busco_userguide.html#conda-package

#### Docker
BUSCO is available through DockerHub - instructions here:
https://busco.ezlab.org/busco_userguide.html#docker-image

#### Manual installation
Manual installation is possible, though it is important to validate each of the dependencies before running BUSCO. 
More details in the user guide: https://busco.ezlab.org/busco_userguide.html#manual-installation

### Troubleshooting
To get help with BUSCO use: ``busco -h`` and ``python3 scripts/generate_plot.py -h``

Report problems on the BUSCO issue board at https://gitlab.com/ezlab/busco/issues
