68 **What it does**
69
70 bedtools merge combines overlapping or "book-ended" features in an interval file into a single feature which spans all of the combined features.

78 bedtools merge requires that you presort your data by chromosome and then by start position.

81 ==========================================================================
82 Default behavior
83 ==========================================================================
84 By default, ``bedtools merge`` combines overlapping (by at least 1 bp) and/or
85 bookended intervals into a single, "flattened" or "merged" interval.

87 ::
88
89 $ cat A.bed
90 chr1 100 200
91 chr1 180 250
92 chr1 250 500
93 chr1 501 1000

95 $ bedtools merge -i A.bed

99
100 ==========================================================================
101 *-s* Enforcing "strandedness"
102 ==========================================================================
103 The ``-s`` option will only merge intervals that are overlapping/bookended
104 *and* are on the same strand.
105
106 ::
107
108 $ cat A.bed
109 chr1 100 200 a1 1 +
110 chr1 180 250 a2 2 +
111 chr1 250 500 a3 3 -
112 chr1 501 1000 a4 4 +
113
114 $ bedtools merge -i A.bed -s
115 chr1 100 250 +
116 chr1 501 1000 +

120 ==========================================================================
121 *-d* Controlling how close two features must be in order to merge
122 ==========================================================================
123 By default, only overlapping or book-ended features are combined into a new
124 feature. However, one can force ``merge`` to combine more distant features
125 with the ``-d`` option. For example, were one to set ``-d`` to 1000, any
126 features that overlap or are within 1000 base pairs of one another will be
127 combined.
