    cummeRbund diffData() or fpkm() values

    I'm getting different FPKM values from diffData() and fpkm() on a couple of different isoform IDs

    Code:
    > diffData(getFeatures(cuff,"TCONS_00246566"))
          isoform_id   sample_1 sample_2  status value_1 value_2 log2_fold_change test_stat p_value q_value significant
    1 TCONS_00246566 macrophage monocyte LOWDATA       0       0    -1.79769e+308         0       1       1          no
    diffData() reports an fpkm of 0 for sample_2 (reported as "value_2")

    Code:
    > fpkm(getFeatures(cuff,"TCONS_00246566"))
          isoform_id sample_name      fpkm conf_hi conf_lo quant_status    stdev
    1 TCONS_00246566  macrophage 0.0000000  0.0000       0      LOWDATA  0.00000
    2 TCONS_00246566    monocyte 0.0972739 49.0851       0      LOWDATA 24.49391
    but fpkm() reports an fpkm of ~0.09 for sample_2

    I know that csHeatmap() uses fpkm() to extract values for plotting, but which is the most accurate value?

    I thought cuffdiff values (available from diffData()) were supposed to be the most accurate?

    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
