  • Getting FQ from bcftools 1.2

    I'm using samtools and bcftools to call hapmap snps from WGS data. With the older version of samtools the vcf file included FQ per site, but when I use the latest version (samtools/bcftools 1.2) it doesn't. I need FQ for a downstream program, so is there a way to force bcftools to output it?

    Here's what my code looks like now:

    Code:
    samtools mpileup -ugf hg19.fasta -l annotHapMap2L.txt $bam/$name.bam | bcftools call -mO v -o $vcf/$name.HM.vcf -V indels -P 0.5

    Current bcftools 1.x contains two calling methods: call -c is the original bcftools consensus caller, while call -m is a more recent multi-allelic caller. Only the consensus caller outputs FQ.

    If your downstream program is expecting to get old-bcftools-style input, you probably want to be using call -c.

      That works. Thanks!

        Genetic Variation in Immunogenetics and Antibody Diversity
        by seqadmin



        The field of immunogenetics explores how genetic variations influence immune responses and susceptibility to disease. In a recent SEQanswers webinar, Oscar Rodriguez, Ph.D., Postdoctoral Researcher at the University of Louisville, and Ruben Martínez Barricarte, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Medicine at Vanderbilt University, shared recent advancements in immunogenetics. This article discusses their research on genetic variation in antibody loci, antibody production processes,...

        Choosing Between NGS and qPCR
        by seqadmin



        Next-generation sequencing (NGS) and quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) are essential techniques for investigating the genome, transcriptome, and epigenome. In many cases, choosing the appropriate technique is straightforward, but in others, it can be more challenging to determine the most effective option. A simple distinction is that smaller, more focused projects are typically better suited for qPCR, while larger, more complex datasets benefit from NGS. However,...
