Hi All,
I was wondering whether anyone had any advice on the best way to calculate estimates of diversity from a bam file. It's a virus, so I'm modelling one bam file as if I'd merged several to form a sequence representing the population. I am thinking that theta might be the best measure to use - does anyone have any favourite tool for doing this?
I've tried pileup in samtools using bcftools /dev/null to get an estimate but all I've ended up with is theta = nan!!
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
All the best,
kat
