RepEnrich read mapping strategy. Reads are mapped to the genome using the Bowtie1 aligner. Reads mapping uniquely to the genome are assigned to subfamilies of repetitive elements based on their degree of overlap to RepeatMasker annotated genomic instances of each repetitive element subfamily. Reads mapping to multiple locations are separately mapped to repetitive element assemblies – referred to as repetitive element psuedogenomes – built from RepeatMasker annotated genomic instances of repetitive element subfamilies.
