    I am working on a new genome, and wondering about prediction methods for heterozygosity in the genome. Any tools suggestions and helps are welcome.

    CommandNotFoundError: Your shell has not been properly configured to use 'conda activate'.
    If your shell is Bash or a Bourne variant, enable conda for the current user with

    $ echo ". /home/urbe/anaconda3/etc/profile.d/conda.sh" >> ~/.bashrc

    or, for all users, enable conda with

    $ sudo ln -s /home/urbe/anaconda3/etc/profile.d/conda.sh /etc/profile.d/conda.sh

    The options above will permanently enable the 'conda' command, but they do NOT
    put conda's base (root) environment on PATH. To do so, run

    $ conda activate

    in your terminal, or to put the base environment on PATH permanently, run

    $ echo "conda activate" >> ~/.bashrc

    Previous to conda 4.4, the recommended way to activate conda was to modify PATH in
    your ~/.bashrc file. You should manually remove the line that looks like

    export PATH="/home/urbe/anaconda3/bin:$PATH"

    ^^^ The above line should NO LONGER be in your ~/.bashrc file! ^^^
