    featureCounts vs bedtools multicov

    --hello,

    i try to compare the programs featureCounts and bedtools multicov to count reads into a little bam file.
    So i use those commands:

    featureCounts -F SAF -p -Q 27 -a myannot.txt -o results.txt 17PT1.bam

    with myannot.txt with one single line and formated as:

    47 TR34|c0_g1_i1 0 387 -

    For bedtools i use:

    bedtools multicov -D -q 27 -p -bams 17PT1.bam -bed myannot.bed

    with myannot.bed with one single line and formated as:

    TR34|c0_g1_i1 0 387

    you can download the bam file from this link:
    Unfortunately, the requested page could not be found.Take me home Banner image credit: The New York Public Library on Unsplash


    with featureCounts i obtain 32 results
    and with bedtools i obtain 54 results.

    I don't understand why this difference in counting ?

    thank you --

    16S/ITS Profiling vs. Shotgun Metagenomics: What Changes in Your Workflow?
    by SEQadmin2





    NGS has revolutionized clinical microbiology by offering new ways to identify and surveil pathogens without prior knowledge of the target. One popular approach is 16S rRNA and ITS amplicon sequencing, which targets specific microbial markers. But studies are increasingly incorporating shotgun metagenomics, a technique that sequences all DNA from a sample without targeting specific microbial markers. This approach allows more detailed taxonomic classification,...

    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
