Hi,
How can I set for the best 10 hits when blasting with command line blast?

Did you try
?Code:-max_target_seqs 10
"Best" doesn't mean the same thing to everyone - but max_target_seqs should select the hits with the highest e-value and bit score. -
yes,
but its like -max_target_seqs 10 does not give 10 maximum hits since i am getting many hits, more than 10!!Comment

Could you post the results? Often you get several (partial) alignments against one database sequence, which then counts as one "target sequence".Comment

Attached is a txt file with the results.
I wait for your comments!Comment

As far as I can see, there are only one query with more than ten result lines (query 4_S4_L001_R1_001_(paired)_trimmed_(paired)_contig_23); in that case, one database target sequence has two alignments. This is the expected behaviour.Comment

You are getting the 10 best target sequences for each query. For some of the queries, there is more than one hit (hsp) to the target. Those are returned too, so sometimes there are more than 10 lines per query. This is good behavior, e.g. if your query is cDNA and the target is a gene with an intron, the query is split into two matches.Comment

Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?
Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating...Yesterday, 09:55 AM -
Researchers using sequencing and genomics tools often have to make trade-offs. They can choose between speed or scale, short reads or long-range information, or targeted panels or a view of the whole transcriptome. New technologies that have been released this year are built to address those tough choices.
We asked six companies the same four questions to learn about their latest products. The new technologies bring a lot to the table, including rethinking sequencing...
