    samtools view -l/-r options

    Hi everyone!
    Is it possible to retrieve mapping results of several specific reads from bam or sam files by referring to the read names?

    I tested the following options and couldn't get it working:

    -l STR only output reads in library STR [null]
    -r STR only output reads in read group STR [null]
    -R FILE list of read groups to be outputted [null]

    I have a txt file that includes names of several candidate reads, and I would like to extract the mapping info of the reads from a bam/sam file.
    Could some one please provide an example script on how to do that?

    Thank you!

    Cheers.

    Check out the fgrep command with the -f parameter.

    samtools view file.bam | fgrep -f candidates.txt

    Play around with a small examples to figure out how to use fgrep.

      16S/ITS Profiling vs. Shotgun Metagenomics: What Changes in Your Workflow?
      by SEQadmin2





      NGS has revolutionized clinical microbiology by offering new ways to identify and surveil pathogens without prior knowledge of the target. One popular approach is 16S rRNA and ITS amplicon sequencing, which targets specific microbial markers. But studies are increasingly incorporating shotgun metagenomics, a technique that sequences all DNA from a sample without targeting specific microbial markers. This approach allows more detailed taxonomic classification,...
