After apply MarkDuplicate on bam file from bwa alignment, samtools flagstat can detect the number of duplicates, how to setup the QC flag for samtools to detect? In my case samtools always detects 0 QC failure.
Thanks

samtools pileup process reads by pushing them in a pileup buffer. one of the conditions it goes through before pushing is to check the the read flag variable "flag_mask" in the pileup buffer structure
The flag_mask is defined when
1) mate is unmapped
2) not primary alignment
3) QC failture
4) optical or PCR duplicate
so it bascially won't include duplicates in a pileup unless you rewrite that condition and compile samtools yourself.
For my case, if i want duplicates read to be reported in samtools, i'll have to run pileup on the BAM before marking it with duplicates.

I couldn't find any documentation that says samtools pileup excludes duplicated marked reads in its calculation of coverage. Is there anyway to make pileup include duplicates marked reads in the coverage?
Thanks.

Metagenomics has improved the way researchers study microorganisms across diverse environments. Historically, studying microorganisms relied on culturing them in the lab, a method that limits the investigation of many species since most are unculturable1. Metagenomics overcomes these issues by allowing the study of microorganisms regardless of their ability to be cultured or the environments they inhabit. Over time, the field has evolved, especially with the advent...-

During the COVID-19 pandemic, scientists observed that while some individuals experienced severe illness when infected with SARS-CoV-2, others were barely affected. These disparities left researchers and clinicians wondering what causes the wide variations in response to viral infections and what role genetics plays.
Jean-Laurent Casanova, M.D., Ph.D., Professor at Rockefeller University, is a leading expert in this crossover between genetics and infectious...-
