  • BWA not outputting sequences

    Hi, I am having an issue with BWA genome alignment where sequence information is not being stored (i.e. sequence output in bam file is a * ). Can anyone tell me why this is happening and how to retrieve my sequences?? I need them for doing downstream SNP analysis. My code for alignment, sam to bam and sorting: bwa mem -t $cpu -r 1 -a -M -R $rg $genome $l | \ sambamba view -t $cpu -f bam -h -S /dev/stdin | \ sambamba sort -t $cpu -o $aligned/$flow/$lane/${nameNoExt}_RG_sorted.bam /dev/stdin

    where $rg is my read group tag, $genome is the path to my genome file and $l is the loop to my input files

    Here is a portion of the output when using: samtools view /path/to/file.bam | head -n 20 The first two have their sequences, while the remaining three output sequences have stars as their sequences. How can I tell bwa to keep these sequences?

      Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
      by seqadmin


      Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
