  • gap penalty in BWA

    Hi,
    I have short question about gap penalty in BWA. The manual said that the gap open penalty is 11 and gap extension penalty is 4. Does the first gap position will be charged 11 or 15?
    Thank you

    I think those are default penalty weights:

    Gap open: cost to make gaps
    Gap extension: cost to make gaps bigger

      Improved Targeted Sequencing: A Comprehensive Guide to Amplicon Sequencing
      by seqadmin



      Amplicon sequencing is a targeted approach that allows researchers to investigate specific regions of the genome. This technique is routinely used in applications such as variant identification, clinical research, and infectious disease surveillance. The amplicon sequencing process begins by designing primers that flank the regions of interest. The DNA sequences are then amplified through PCR (typically multiplex PCR) to produce amplicons complementary to the targets. RNA targets...

      Targeted Sequencing: Choosing Between Hybridization Capture and Amplicon Sequencing
      by seqadmin




      Targeted sequencing is an effective way to sequence and analyze specific genomic regions of interest. This method enables researchers to focus their efforts on their desired targets, as opposed to other methods like whole genome sequencing that involve the sequencing of total DNA. Utilizing targeted sequencing is an attractive option for many researchers because it is often faster, more cost-effective, and only generates applicable data. While there are many approaches...
