  • Need help with Plink map file

    Hi,

    I plan to phase my non-human organism genomic data using Shapeit2. I have recombination data available from literature, but I am struggling to understand how to set up the map file. I have read around but still not sure how to build the file. This is the description of the map file:

    This file can be SPACE or TAB delimited. Each line corresponds to a SNP. The 4 columns are:
    1) Chromosome number [integer]
    2) SNP ID [string]
    3) SNP genetic position (cM) [float]
    4) SNP physical position (bp) [integer]

    I am not sure on the interpretation of column 3. Let's say I have a known recombination rate of 13mbp/cM and 4 SNPs in position 500, 10,000, 20,000, 33,000 on chromosome 2 : how should the map file look like?

    Thank you for your kind attention,
    Max

    You could set it to 0 and not have any issues as long as 1 & 4 are accurate.

        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...
