    Trinity and jellyfish problem

    Dear All,

    When using Trinity, the pl script suddenly stops:

    CMD: /home/marbiol/jelle/trinityrnaseq_r2013-02-25/trinity-plugins/jellyfish/bin/jellyfish count -t 2 -m 25 -s 766958445 both.fa
    Can't exec "/home/marbiol/jelle/trinityrnaseq_r2013-02-25/trinity-plugins/jellyfish/bin/jellyfish": No such file or directory at Trinity.pl line 1472.
    Error, cmd: /home/marbiol/jelle/trinityrnaseq_r2013-02-25/trinity-plugins/jellyfish/bin/jellyfish count -t 2 -m 25 -s 766958445 both.fa died with ret -1 at Trinity.pl line 1476.

    Does anybody have any idea why?

    Best wishes,

    you don't have jellyfish installed properly.

    Did you execute the command 'make' inside the Trinity folder that you decompressed after downloading?

      Yes I have, Everything gets installed properly however the error is still there.
      Is there maybe a need to install jellyfish to?

        Does the jellyfish file exist at the location referenced? Can you verify that?

        Code:
        $ ls -lt /home/marbiol/jelle/trinityrnaseq_r2013-02-25/trinity-plugins/jellyfish/bin/jellyfish

            That does indicate that the plugin was not correctly compiled. Did you get any errors when you did the "make"? Can you try recompiling and post any errors you see.

              Before doing this i would like to ask this:
              Installing trinity is first unzipping the file followed by the command: make
              Are there other parts I need to compile?

                  That is correct. I just verified that jellyfish gets built as part of the trinity compilation.

                  What OS are you using?

                    errors
                    You need to install "libncurses5-dev" library. If this is Ubuntu.

                      I'm using Linux version:

                        Then the library is likely called "ncurses-devel". Install that.

                            Hi all,

                            I have installed the package but the error still remains. However it looks that trinity has gone further compared to before.

                              Did you install "ncurses" library as well?

                                From Collection to Sequencing: Why Sample Preparation and Preservation Define Sequencing Data
                                by SEQadmin2


                                Data variability is still an issue in sequencing technologies despite the advances in reproducibility and accuracy of these platforms. But the problem does not originate in the sequencing itself, but in the previous steps, before the sample reaches the sequencer.


                                The first step is collection, followed by preservation and sample preparation for analysis. Most scientists overlook those steps, but not being careful might just be skewing the experiment’s results.

                                Single-Cell Sequencing at an Inflection Point: Early Impacts of New Platforms and Emerging Trends
                                by SEQadmin2


                                With the launch of new single-cell sequencing platforms in 2026, the field stands at an exciting inflection point. This article surveys the most impactful advances in the field and discusses how they’re reshaping research in cancer, immunology, and beyond.


                                Introduction

                                Single-cell sequencing technologies have undergone remarkable advances over the past decade, transitioning from low-throughput experimental approaches to highly scalable platforms capable of...

                                Environmental Genomics in the Age of NGS: From Microbes to Conservation Strategies
                                by SEQadmin2

                                Studying ecosystems means dealing with complex, multi-species communities that are hard to observe at scale. This complexity, however, hides many important questions to be answered, from how biogeochemical cycles work and how climate change can affect species distribution to how conservation strategies can work best.


                                Genomics, particularly since the expansion of NGS, has transformed ecosystem ecology. By sequencing environmental DNA, we can now assess biodiversity without direct...
