--un-conc <output_file_un_conc> --al-conc <output_file_al_conc>

Reading the manual tells you that bowtie2 will automatically add .1 and .2 to each output_file to distinguish the mates...

[zillur]

But how? Would you please to give me an example line.

Hi,

I do not know so well bowtie2 but same kind of options exist for bowtie, and you have to give an output file for unmapped guys...

Hi there,
I tried to get the output from bowtie2 those reads which did not align. As Bowtie2 has the option on paired reads to spit out fastq files of things that fail to align concordantly (--un-conc <path>), and it has the option to spit out fastq files of things than align concordantly (--al-conc <path>).
I tried the following way:
Anyone can give me some idea???
