<p>I have two genomes with high similarity. But I found out that one genome has a longer sequence of about 200 kbp. I try to align the sequence with Mauve. How can I extract this unique 200 kbp?</p>

How is this region demarcated? Between certain features? A separate contig?
How would you want the region identified for any such code to retrieve it?

I've found the answer.

I've aligned these genomes (gbk files) with Mauve Contig Mover, and then I exported the Gap File into a csv file. Then I used python pandas to analyze the region that is unique to each strand from the csv file.
