  • little mutations were found by samtools mpileup

    HI:
    I used samtools mpileup to to find mutations. My sample genome is relative small and the coverage is about 1000X (illumina paired-end 90bp)

    I used following code to generate VCF:
    samtools view -bS sample.sam > sample.bam#generate bam
    samtools sort sample.bam sample.sorted.bam#sort bam
    samtools mpileup -ugf sample.fas sample.sorted.bam | bcftools view -vcg > sample.vcf#generate VCF file

    In my vcf output, There are just two mutations, but I visulized the sam file in IGV and found lots of mutations. I supposed those mutations is filter out because of bad qc, So I used "-Q 0 -q 0 -C 0" but no more mutations were found.
    Are there other parameters I didn`t found?

    Any sugestions will be appreciated!

    Try

    samtools mpileup -Bugf sample.fas sample.sorted.bam | bcftools view -vcg > sample.vcf#generate VCF file
    Sometimes, the BAQ corrections kill good mutations.

      Thank you for your reply, I try -B, but no more mutations were found.
      Any one know what`s wrong?
      The version of samtools is 0.1.18 (r982:295)

        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...
