    Problem GATK with CountCovariates

    Hello,

    I use GATK v1.2-4-gd9ea764 and when i use this command :

    java -Xmx4G -jar GenomeAnalysisTK/GenomeAnalysisTK.jar -l INFO -R chr7.fa -I seq.bam --DBSNP snp132.txt -T CountCovariates -cov ReadGroupConvariate -cov QualityScoreCovariate -cov CycleCovariate -cov DinucCovariate -recalFile seq.recal_data.csv


    I have this message :

    MESSAGE: Argument with name 'DBSNP' isn't defined.

    Then I use different argument but none work. Have you an idea ?

    Thank

    You specify dbSNP (in vcf format) like this:

    -B:dbSNP,VCF /your/dbsnp.vcf

      When I specify -B:dbsnp,vcf 00-All.vcf

      I have this message : Invalid command line: The parameter rodBind is deprecated. Bindings for reference-ordered data, in the form :<name>,<type> <file>

        I may be wrong but I'm pretty sure the VCF needs to be capitalised. I'm not using that version of GATK however.

            OK, the behaviour has certainly changed in 1.2

            Try this:

            java -jar -Xmx8G GenomeAnalysisTK.jar -l INFO -T CountCovariates -R your_reference.fasta -knownSites:dbsnp,VCF yourdbsnp.vcf -knownSites:indels,VCF yourindels.vcf -I input.bam -cov ReadGroupCovariate -cov QualityScoreCovariate -cov CycleCovariate -cov DinucCovariate -recalFile covariate_table.csv

            (or local equivalents)

              Hi Bukowski

              where can I yourindel.vcf for download knownSites:indels? Is it all included in dbsnp135 vcf file?

                  Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
                  by SEQadmin2


                  I’m not a sequencing expert. I’m a purification scientist who uses NGS to evaluate workflows my group develops. With this perspective, we think about the sample first and the NGS workflow second. The sequencer is an exceptionally honest reporter, but it can only report on what you give it, so whether you get clean, interpretable data from an NGS workflow is largely determined before you begin.

                  Here are nine questions we think about, in roughly the order they matter, before...

                  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.
