  • Fastq quliaty score and MAQ output quality score

    fastq file:

    MAQ alignment output:

    I326_2_FC306FCAAXX:8:1:50:985 1 1 + 0 0 99 99 99 0 0 1 0 35 ATGTCCGAAGGGCAGTCTCAAGTGGTAAAATGGAT ```W```````````S``\PO]L`XZXPNLUTZNO

    what's the meaning of ```W```````````S``\PO]L`XZXPNLUTZNO ?

    not the same as hhhWhhhchhhhhahShh\PO]LgXZXPNLUTZNO
