  • How does cuffdiff/cufflinks determine "read type"?

    From a recent cuffdiff run:
    Code:
    > Map Properties:
    >	Total Map Mass: 5798099.00
    >	Number of Multi-Reads: 0 (with 0 total hits)
    >	Read Type: 106bp x 106bp
    >	Fragment Length Distribution: Empirical (learned)
    >	              Estimated Mean: 171.87
    >	           Estimated Std Dev: 55.64
    > Map Properties:
    >	Total Map Mass: 5795202.00
    >	Number of Multi-Reads: 0 (with 0 total hits)
    >	Read Type: 105bp x 105bp
    >	Fragment Length Distribution: Empirical (learned)
    >	              Estimated Mean: 171.90
    >	           Estimated Std Dev: 55.69
    These are from 100bp x 100bp reads, why would cufflinks believe that they are 105bp or 106bp paired-end reads?

    I have the same problem. I used cufflinks 1.0.3.

    Warning: Using default Gaussian distribution due to insufficient paired-end reads in open ranges. It is recommended that correct paramaters (--frag-len-mean and --frag-len-std-dev) be provided.
    > Map Properties:
    > Upper Quartile: 366.70
    > Read Type: 108bp x 102bp
    > Fragment Length Distribution: Truncated Gaussian (default)
    > Default Mean: 200
    > Default Std Dev: 80

      I cannot understand why there is this warning. I have trimed my data, is this the reason?

        I also get the same warning. I am also using trimmed reads. Can any one explain why cufflinks thinks that the reads are single end even though the bam file was produced using paired reads in tophat?

          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...
