Hello, everyone. I am new to next generation sequencing data analysis. And I have tried two different methods, SOAP2 and BWA, to assembly my data (Illumina data, targeted region deep sequencing). However, two different programs give two different output. It seems that SOAP2 is more strict than BWA. SOAP2 can map about 70%(including single end read) to the genome, as for BWA, it could map up to more than 90%. Meanwhile, SOAP2 does not allow any small indels as well as many mutations, which is accepted by BWA. So, here is my problem, which one I should choose for further analysis? Which one is more popular and widely acceptable than the other? Thank you.

BWA is the clear favorite around here, competing with Novoalign, see this thread: http://seqanswers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=6822

Proteins are often described as the workhorses of the cell, and identifying their sequences is key to understanding their role in biological processes and disease. Currently, the most common technique used to determine protein sequences is mass spectrometry. While still a valuable tool, mass spectrometry faces several limitations and requires a highly experienced scientist familiar with the equipment to operate it. Additionally, other proteomic methods, like affinity assays, are constrained...-

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...-
