    Qsub bwa pipeline...

    This may seem like a relatively easy question, but here goes:

    I am trying to create a relatively simple shell script that sits in a parent folder, goes through all subfolders, grabs all files with the extension .fq, and aligns them using BWA aln. The caveat is that I need to use qsub to do this or I will make the admins very unhappy

    My initial script was something along the lines of the following:

    result=(`find . -name "*.fq" -type f`)

    for i1 in ${result[@]}
    do

    qsub -q queue_name -l nodes=1pn=8 -V test.sh

    done

    It should be noted that the first portion simply gets the filenames (and paths) and the second calls test.sh, which is shown below (note that the first two variable paths are truncated for forum purposes):

    REFERENCE=/refpath
    BWA_HOME=/bwapath

    result=(`find . -name "*.fq" -type f`)

    for i1 in ${result[@]}
    do

    $BWA_HOME/bwa aln -t 8 $REFERENCE $i1 > $i1".sai"

    done

    I am simply trying to get BWA to run using the $1i filename and $i1.sai as the output name. The reason I ran the for loop here and in the initial script is because there seems to be a problem holding on to $i1. If I run the bottom script as a standalone script, BWA begins running on the first file. The key is I'm not certain how to get it to run qsub X times (where X is the number of .fq files), each time is with a different file/output. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

      What if you change your test.sh to just take one .fq file at a time and you pass the file name to test.sh in the for-loop of your initial script?

        If you are interested check out our pipeline (www.keatslab.org). Its a qsub based program. We build two flavours. One that reads all the fastq pairs in a folder and aligns then calls variants. The other leverages an input file that allows for proper RG tag assignment that is required for GATK variant calling. Nice thing is it will merge multiple lanes of the same library together for you.

          You'll probably find it more convenient to use a single job array than submitting many jobs in a loop.
          In your launch script do a single qsub:
          qsub -t 0-$[${#result[@]}-1] test.sh
          In test.sh the environment variable PBS_ARRAYID tells you which job is running:
          i1=${result[$PBS_ARRAYID]}

            Got it working using:

            sh "/filepath/test.sh $i1" | qsub -q queue_name -l nodes=1pn=8

            Not positive why I had to go about it in such a roundabout way.

              Pathogen Surveillance with Advanced Genomic Tools
              by seqadmin




              The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the need for proactive pathogen surveillance systems. As ongoing threats like avian influenza and newly emerging infections continue to pose risks, researchers are working to improve how quickly and accurately pathogens can be identified and tracked. In a recent SEQanswers webinar, two experts discussed how next-generation sequencing (NGS) and machine learning are shaping efforts to monitor viral variation and trace the origins of infectious...
