Best Aligner for Duplicated Sequences
I'm looking around for some input from fellow SEQers. I'm experimenting with different aligners. I'm looking for an aligner that does a good job of correctly mapping reads from duplicated sequences, while at the same time is used fairly commonly. I am already looking into bwa, bowtie, and snap, but I would like to add one more to the list. Any suggestions? Would novoalign or stampy be good choices?

i think you should change the query to aligner for multiply mapped reads!
most aligners you mention have different options to select multiply mapped reads, so it might end up being multiple options from the same tool as well...--

Thanks bioinfosm! I'll look into that. Do you have any experience with stampy or novoalign?Comment

Differential Expression and Data Visualization: Recommended Tools for Next-Level Sequencing Analysis
After covering QC and alignment tools in the first segment and variant analysis and genome assembly in the second segment, we’re wrapping up with a discussion about tools for differential gene expression analysis and data visualization. In this article, we include recommendations from the following experts: Dr. Mark Ziemann, Senior Lecturer in Biotechnology and Bioinformatics, Deakin University; Dr. Medhat Mahmoud Postdoctoral Research Fellow at Baylor College of Medicine;...05-23-2023, 12:26 PM -
Continuing from our previous article, we share variant analysis and genome assembly tools recommended by our experts Dr. Medhat Mahmoud, Postdoctoral Research Fellow at Baylor College of Medicine, and Dr. Ming "Tommy" Tang, Director of Computational Biology at Immunitas and author of From Cell Line to Command Line.

With new tools and computational resources being released regularly, it can be hard to determine which are best suited for the analysis process and which older tools continue to be maintained. In an effort to assist the sequencing community, we interviewed three highly skilled bioinformaticians about their recommended tools for several important analysis applications.
