hello everyone, I am new in using BWA and samtools, but I found something really strange: I used two different parameter settings of BWA for mapping, and I got two mapping results. Then I used samtools to call SNP from the two mapping results respectively, got SNP collection A and B. a SNP X presents in A while absent in B. But the real problem is: when I browsered the mapping results with "samtools tview", I found the locus X is a real SNP in both mapping results! So my problem is : the BWA parameter did not affected mapping results, but affected snp calling with samtools!

all replies are greatly appreciated! -
It's unlikely that the parameters you feed to bwa would change the results of SNP calling without also resulting in different mapping. In the case that you're describing, was there a difference in depth at the position in question between the SAM files? That would seem to be the most likely cause.Comment

Thanks!~ I have checked the depth at the locus on both mapping results, one is 241, the other 243. So it is unlikely to be the reason....Originally posted by dpryan View PostComment

OK, I got it, finally~~ when I applied -BE when calling variants with the bcftools, the missing locus could be detected again. Inspired by this post: http://seqanswers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=16786.Comment

Many organizations study rare diseases, but few have a mission as impactful as Rady Children’s Institute for Genomic Medicine (RCIGM). “We are all about changing outcomes for children,” explained Dr. Stephen Kingsmore, President and CEO of the group. The institute’s initial goal was to provide rapid diagnoses for critically ill children and shorten their diagnostic odyssey, a term used to describe the long and arduous process it takes patients to obtain an accurate...12-16-2024, 07:57 AM -
