    VarScan shift in counting of bases!

    I'm using VarScan.v2.2.11.

    The problem I'm reporting here is something about VarScan's parameter --min-avg-qual when using command mpileup2indel. I'm setting it to be default, which is 15.

    In the input pileup file:
    CHROMOSOME_I 221154 g 42 .,,,,,,,+1c,+1c,,+1c,+1c,+1c,+1c,+1c,+1c,+1c,+1c,+1c,+1c,+1c.+1C,+1c.+1C,+1c,+1c,+1c,+1c.+1C.+1C,+1c,+1c,+1c.+1C,+1c,+1c,+1c.+1C.+1C.+1C.+1C.+1C 1C?C<FFFFDHJEAJDJIJG<JJG'GIDIJBD9JDDDG?FDF

    The corresponding output:
    CHROMOSOME_I 221154 G +C */+C:41:8:34:45.33%:4.4044E-13 Pass:11:30:10:24:1E0 0 1 0 0 */+C:41:8:34:45.33%:4.4044E-13

    The red colored part of the input won't get passed the --min-avg-qual filteration, because it's base quality is less than 15. The prblem is that in the output, we see the Cov=41 (which is correct), Reads1=8 (which is also correct), but Reads2=34 (which should be 33, because one of the insertion has mapping quality less than 15).

    Anyone has a similar problem like me? Could anyone help? I think this might be a bug of VarScan.

    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
