23 <title>Removing Redundancy</title>
27 <strong>Removing redundancy</strong>
30 Selecting the option in the Alignment window's <strong>Edit</strong>
31 menu or pressing <strong>'CONTROL+D'</strong> brings up a dialog box
32 asking you to select a threshold. If the percentage identity between
33 the aligned positions of any two sequences in the visible alignment
34 exceeds this value, the shorter sequence is discarded.<br> <em>Note:</em>
35 The redundancy calculation is done when the dialog box is opened.
36 For large numbers of sequences this can take a long time as all
37 pairs have to be compared.
