    coveragebed output result problem

    Hi,

    I'm running coveragebed to calculate the number of read count in each transcript of tophat alignment result by using the following command:
    Code:
    /bedtool/arq5x-bedtools-26a87ab/bin/coverageBed -abam accepted_hits.bam -b transcripts.bed > transcripts.cov.txt 
    cat transcripts.cov.txt
    gi|224589800|ref|NC_000001.10|  8378168 8404227 "ENSG00000162426"       [B]70      1059    26059   0.0406386[/B]
    Does anybody knows what is the 70, 1059, 26059, 0.0406386 represent?
    I know that 0.0406386 is obtained from 1059/26059.
    Is it 1059 refer to total number of read aligned to the transcript and 26059 represent the transcript length? How about 70?
    Kindly correct me if I'm wrong.
    Thanks for any advice.

    If you type "coverageBed -h", the last few lines describe the output format.

    Code:
    Default Output:  
    	 After each entry in B, reports: 
    	   1) The number of features in A that overlapped the B interval.
    	   2) The number of bases in B that had non-zero coverage.
    	   3) The length of the entry in B.
    	   4) The fraction of bases in B that had non-zero coverage.

        Multiomic Liquid Biopsy: What DNA/RNA Panels Reveal That DNA Alone Can’t
        by SEQadmin2



        Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?

        Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating

        New Genomics Technologies Take Aim at Long-Standing Limits
        by SEQadmin2


        Researchers using sequencing and genomics tools often have to make trade-offs. They can choose between speed or scale, short reads or long-range information, or targeted panels or a view of the whole transcriptome. New technologies that have been released this year are built to address those tough choices.

        We asked six companies the same four questions to learn about their latest products. The new technologies bring a lot to the table, including rethinking sequencing
