    stampy hash table overfull

    Hey, I'm new to bioinformatics and currently trying to build a hash table for a reference genome using stampy.

    I have built the .stdix file already and the command that's giving me trouble is:

    python /data/gavin/apps/stampy-1.0.22/stampy.py -g mdo_ref -H mdo_ref 2>mdo_ERR

    I've gone through this pipeline with a few other genomes that haven't caused problems, but I keep getting this error with this genome:

    stampy: Error: hash reached fill factor 0.980000019073 - aborting
    stampy: Now at locus 2413581345 of 3502392093 with stride 5; hash table size is 29 bits
    stampy: Suggest increasing stride or hash table size

    stampy: Error: Overfull hash table


    Would someone be able to tell me how to increase either of these things? The process is getting about 88% complete before stopping and outputting this error.

    Thank you!

    Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing
    by SEQadmin2


    I’m not a sequencing expert. I’m a purification scientist who uses NGS to evaluate workflows my group develops. With this perspective, we think about the sample first and the NGS workflow second. The sequencer is an exceptionally honest reporter, but it can only report on what you give it, so whether you get clean, interpretable data from an NGS workflow is largely determined before you begin.

    Here are nine questions we think about, in roughly the order they matter, before...

    From Collection to Sequencing: Why Sample Preparation and Preservation Define Sequencing Data
    by SEQadmin2


    Data variability is still an issue in sequencing technologies despite the advances in reproducibility and accuracy of these platforms. But the problem does not originate in the sequencing itself, but in the previous steps, before the sample reaches the sequencer.


    The first step is collection, followed by preservation and sample preparation for analysis. Most scientists overlook those steps, but not being careful might just be skewing the experiment’s results.
