Hi,
How can I just find out how many reads are there in a fastq file?
Thanks,
Parham

wc -l file.fastq will give you the number of lines, then you can divide that by four.
Or you can just run fastqc. -
Or
grep xxx -c file.fastq
xxx being some string of characters only found in sequence identifiers
With MiSeq generated fastq an example would be
grep @M00 -c file.fastqLast edited by JackieBadger; 02-17-2014, 11:34 AM.Comment

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... -
The immune system’s power comes from its genetic diversity, allowing myriad threats to be neutralized through first recognizing foreign antigens. That diversity is also what makes the immune system so difficult to study. Recent advances in sequencing technology and computational biology, however, are giving researchers new tools to understand immune responses and immune-related diseases in greater detail.
This convergence of genetics, immunology, and computation...09-01-2026, 05:41 AM
