      Another problem

      Thank you very much for your kind help. This command worked perfectly but another problem, after installation.

        You only compiled the program. You would need to amend your $PATH to include the location of the program e.g. "/path_to/samtools-1.2/src/bcftools-1.2/" or copy the bcftools executable to a directory already in your $PATH (e.r. /usr/local/bin).

          Thank you very much for your quick answer. How can I amend my $PATH or get info about my current $PATH.

            The PATH environment variable is a colon-delimited list of directories that your shell searches through when you enter a command.

              Thank you very much for your kind response. bacfools is working now perfectly. But when I was trying to install samtools it gave me the following error report:

              [zillur@workstation01 samtools-1.2]$ sudo make install
              [sudo] password for zillur:
              gcc -g -Wall -O2 -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE -D_CURSES_LIB=1 -I. -Ihtslib-1.2.1 -c -o bam_tview_curses.o bam_tview_curses.c
              bam_tview_curses.c:30:20: fatal error: curses.h: No such file or directory
              #include <curses.h>
              ^
              compilation terminated.
              make: *** [bam_tview_curses.o] Error 1

              The installation instructions are :


              Compilation
              ===========

              'cd' to the samtools-1.x directory containing the package's source and type
              'make' to compile samtools.

              This samtools release contains a copy of HTSlib which will be used to build
              samtools. If you already have a system-installed HTSlib or another HTSlib
              that you would prefer to build against, you can arrange this by overriding
              $(HTSDIR) by typing 'make HTSDIR=/path/to/htslib-source' -- see the makefile
              for details.


              Installation
              ============

              Type 'make install' to install the samtools executable and various scripts
              and executables from misc/ and a manual page to /usr/local.

              Type 'make prefix=/path/to/dir install' to install everything under your
              choice of installation directory. The install target also understands
              DESTDIR and the other usual installation directory variables.

              The bgzip and tabix utilities are provided by HTSlib. If you have not also
              installed HTSlib separately, you may wish to install these utilities by hand
              by copying samtools-1.x/htslib-1.x/{bgzip,tabix} to the same bin directory
              to which you have installed samtools et al.

                        On RPM-based distributions, this package is often called ncurses-devel.

                          Thank you very much for your kind suggestions. It is working now perfectly. Another question, whenever I logout or shut down my computer and login again why I need to specify the paths (export PATH="/dir/:PATH"). Is there any way to avoid it?

                            There are many ways of doing this. You can edit .profile (or .bashrc) file in your home directory (~) and put that export statement in there. If you already have an export statement for PATH in the file(s) then amend it as needed.

                              Thank you very much for your kind reply. Here is my bash_profile file:# .bash_profile

                              # Get the aliases and functions
                              if [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then
                              . ~/.bashrc
                              fi

                              # User specific environment and startup programs

                              PATH=$PATH:$HOME/.local/bin:$HOME/bin

                              export PATH


                              I am not sure which part I need to edit. I have different tools in different directory, like:

                              /home/zillur/Desktop/zillur/Tools/bcftools-1.2

                              /home/zillur/Desktop/zillur/Tools/samtools-1.2

                              /home/zillur/Desktop/zillur/Tools/bowtie2-2.2.5

                                Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
