  • bwa alignement

    Hello,
    I am trying to align viral RNA sequences against reference fasta file.
    It looks like it is not working properly

    my index code looks like that

    ./bwa index reference.fasta

    but I keep getting output like

    [M::bwa_idx_load_from_disk] read 0 ALT contigs
    [M:rocess] read 136386 sequences (10000131 bp)...
    [M:rocess] read 136392 sequences (10000087 bp)...
    [M::mem_pestat] # candidate unique pairs for (FF, FR, RF, RR): (0, 24370, 7, 0)
    [M::mem_pestat] skip orientation FF as there are not enough pairs
    [M::mem_pestat] analyzing insert size distribution for orientation FR...
    [M::mem_pestat] (25, 50, 75) percentile: (138, 175, 224)
    [M::mem_pestat] low and high boundaries for computing mean and std.dev: (1, 396)
    [M::mem_pestat] mean and std.dev: (186.45, 62.40)
    [M::mem_pestat] low and high boundaries for proper pairs: (1, 482)
    [M::mem_pestat] skip orientation RF as there are not enough pairs
    [M::mem_pestat] skip orientation RR as there are not enough pairs
    [M::mem_process_seqs] Processed 136386 reads in 3.278 CPU sec, 3.070 real sec

    Should I include options like -p and -a? I have no idea what exactly should be written in "Prefix of the output database" after index command

    What is not working properly? Indexing genome and alignment are two independent steps. You completed the indexing of the genome. Now you need to align using `bwa mem`+ this index + your reads => Aligned SAM file => Aligned BAM file.

    You could give your database a name that is what the "prefix" refers to. If you don't provide a name then your index is going to use the same "basename" as your reference file. In this case, "reference.fasta".

      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...
