How to generate a tab limited genome co-odinate file from a reference - bedtools

Question

[nitinra]

Hello all,

I am trying to generate a genome file similar to this from a fasta reference genome. What tool can I use to generate this?

Thank you.

File you linked has the sizes of the chromosomes. These files are available from UCSC (if you are working with a genome there) or you can simply add up the nucleotides in your fasta file for each sequence and make that file. e.g. faslen from this.

have you looked around on the forum already?

eg. this thread: Calculate length of sequences from fasta file

thank you so much! I don't think I was using the right keywords. I completely missed this!
