    problem with R2 reads from Miseq

    Dear, I have a problem in Miseq data. I have paired 2x150bp reads. I have identified some false positive (repetitive in different samples) due to short mapped reads. In fastq files (both R1 and R2) I have the reads complete, but sometimes only little fragments (about 35bp) of reads from R2.fastq map to genome, as PCR duplicates .
    The related reads in always in *R2.fastq, and if I look into bam file this is "Second in pair".

    Anyone has any idea? Is it an experimental problem or a bioinformatic one?
    Thanks

    What software was used to align the reads, and were the reads trimmed before alignment?

      I use bwa, samtools rmdup to remove duplicates (not -S option), gatk for local realignment and recalibration.
      The reads before alignment are trimmed randomly. In the figure you can see three reads in R2 fastq file and in yellow the mapped short read. I don't know what happens to the rest of bp.

        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
