    BFAST match/localalign help

    Hi,

    I'm trying to create a bfast localalign but it doesn't work. I've located the problem with bfast match. The match appears to be working, but I can't find the *.bmf file. This is what happens:

    I enter the following command:
    bfast match -f /<dir>/bfast-0.6.4d/reference/reference_human.fa -r /<dir>/bfast-0.6.4d/reference/SFF/GEFS9NN02.fastq

    This gives the following output on the console:

    As you can see, the output is fairly strange. Where I placed the ... \n ... \n ... \n the console prints literally pages of the strange output, usiing half the CPU just to print it. While at the end the program states that it is terminated succesfully, the *.bmf file is missing. I've searched the entire computer, but no file found. What is happening here?

    try this:

    bfast match -f /<dir>/bfast-0.6.4d/reference/reference_human.fa -r /<dir>/bfast-0.6.4d/reference/SFF/GEFS9NN02.fastq > /<dir>/bfast-0.6.4d/reference/SFF/GEFS9NN02.fastq.bmf

      Worked like a charm, thank you. I feel kinda silly for not thinking of this. The strange output is gone and the localalign is running, so we'll see how it workes out.

        the strange output is your actual .bmf file

          Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
          by SEQadmin2


          I’m not a sequencing expert. I’m a purification scientist who uses NGS to evaluate workflows my group develops. With this perspective, we think about the sample first and the NGS workflow second. The sequencer is an exceptionally honest reporter, but it can only report on what you give it, so whether you get clean, interpretable data from an NGS workflow is largely determined before you begin.

          Here are nine questions we think about, in roughly the order they matter, before...

          From Collection to Sequencing: Why Sample Preparation and Preservation Define Sequencing Data
          by SEQadmin2


          Data variability is still an issue in sequencing technologies despite the advances in reproducibility and accuracy of these platforms. But the problem does not originate in the sequencing itself, but in the previous steps, before the sample reaches the sequencer.

          The first step is collection, followed by preservation and sample preparation for analysis. Most scientists overlook those steps, but not being careful might just be skewing the experiment’s results.
