Hi, developer

I used fastp with some RNA-seq data, and found the detected adapter sequences are identical to some rRNA or mtRNA sequences.

For example:
Detecting adapter sequence for read1...
GTTCGATTCCTTCCTTTCTTATTTTACTTTTACATAGGTTGGTTCCTCGAATGTGTGATA
Detecting adapter sequence for read2...
CAAACTCATGCATATCACATAGTTAATCCAAGTCCATGACCATTAACTGGAGCCTTTTCA

When I run blast with these sequences, it says these sequences are 100% identical to mouse mtRNA.

It's that means the RNA-seq sample contain a lot of rRNA and mtRNA? Should I trim these sequences before mapping?

It's normal that RNA-seq data has rRNA.

I think you can disable --detect_adapter_for_PE, since most adapters will be trimmed by PE overlap detection.
