BWA: Should Sai/Sam sequences processed match

SEQanswers June Challenge Has Begun!

The competition has begun! We're giving away a $50 Amazon gift card to the member who answers the most questions on our site during the month. We want to encourage our community members to share their knowledge and help each other out by answering questions related to sequencing technologies, genomics, and bioinformatics. The competition is open to all members of the site, and the winner will be announced at the beginning of July. Best of luck!

BWA: Should Sai/Sam sequences processed match

03-19-2013, 01:23 PM

Hi,

After running BWA I get an output like this:

[bwa_sai2sam_pe_core] print alignments... 0.66 sec
[bwa_sai2sam_pe_core] 197538574 sequences have been processed.
[main] Version: 0.6.1-r104

Should the no. of sequences processed match for the sai and sam files?

For both sai files I have the no. of sequences processed at 147913358
For the sam file it is 197538574

I have re-run this but get the same result. For other sai to sam conversions I have run this number seems to match.

Thanks,

Jom

Given your data is PE, there is no reason the number shouldn't match really. Could be pairing messed up. How many reads do you have in each fastq then?

Best,
