Can anyone confirm if default fold change in cuffdiff is 2? how can I reduce this to 1.5?

As far as I know there is no fold change cutoff applied by cuffdiff
Nothing here about it
Why do you think there is a cutoff applied?

Hi Jeales
thanks for your reply. I thought so as well. however, some genes that were 1.5-1.8 fold expressed are missing in the final list of significantly differentially expressed genes. also, I could only see -1.5 and 1.5 as lowest log2 values for DE.Comment

Which output file are you looking at?
Also how many lines does it contain and is it the correct number? (i.e the number of genes/transcripts in the gtf)
All log 2 fold changes should be reported whether they are significant or not
Also if you're just looking at a list of significant results, then broadly speaking, results with smaller fold changes are less likely to be significant, and this might be why you aren't seeing any fold changes nearer to zeroComment

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...10-14-2026, 09:55 AM -
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...
