I would like to adopt Augustus into my prediction pipeline but I need to inquire into one issue: Can Augustus handle non-canonical splice sites except (except for AT-AC)?
The species I work on have GT-TG, GC-CG,... and more. If I provide these things as intron hints, will Augustus accept it? Or will it force the gene structure into GT/GC-AG?

The option
allows Augustus to predict these introns in addition to the GT-AG and GC-AG introns that are allowed by default. However, it will not predict these ab initio only. It will predict only those non-standard introns that are supported by hints, e.g. from spliced RNA-seq reads.
