    bwa missing quality

    Hi,

    I have encountered a problem while using bwa aligner.
    After using bwa version 0.5.8a on fastq files I checked the sam file for the reads with missing quality e.g. "*",
    and got quite many 100 . Fastq files have quality information on those reads.

    Here is one of examples of the read in fastq and in sam format:

    Fastq:
    @SOLEXA-DELL_0060:6:44:18581:16891#0/1
    CAAGCAGTCAGTGGGATGGGGAGCATCTTCCGCAAGAAATGGGGGTGTTTAAGGAGGCCCCCAAGATGAGCTAAAA
    +SOLEXA-DELL_0060:6:44:18581:16891#0/1
    ffffffffffffffffffffefffffffffffffffffffcfeff^`^ddaddddddfddededdddc_^\bb^cd

    Sam:

    SOLEXA-DELL_0060:6:44:18581:16891#0 99 chr1 159308947 60 76M = 159309107 236 CAAGCAGTCAGTGGGATGGGGAGCATCTTCCGCAAGAAATGGGGGTGTTTAAGGAGGCCCCCAAGATGAGCTAAAA * XT:A:U NM:i:0 SM:i:37 AM:i:37 X0:i:1 X1:i:0 XM:i:0 XO:i:0 XG:i:0 MD:Z:76 RG:Z:OP2.2L06


    My question is why the value for the quality is missing in sam file?

    I've already asked this question on the mailing list (http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/f...e=bio-bwa-help)

    Multiomic Liquid Biopsy: What DNA/RNA Panels Reveal That DNA Alone Can’t
    by SEQadmin2



    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

    New Genomics Technologies Take Aim at Long-Standing Limits
    by SEQadmin2


    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
