    Mapping assembled genome back to reads: why SNPs?

    Hi members,

    I've paired end, Illumina, Klebsiella Pneumonia.
    Read length 251, MiSeq run
    Quality remains good until the read end.

    Assembled genome's quality is reasonable checked with Quast.

    When I map my reads back to assembled genome, and carry out SNP analysis, I find SNP within it.
    I set coverage as 10 to call a base SNP.
    I fail to understand why a reference has SNP when mapped against itself.

    Is it something to do with SPAdes' correction?

    Tool used for mapping, and VCF - bowtie, and GATK.
    spades version: 3.5.0

    Spades run on auto coverage settings, everything else default. Bowtie, and GATK default.

    I found similar post at:
    Discussion of next-gen sequencing related bioinformatics: resources, algorithms, open source efforts, etc


    Any help shall be appreciated.
    Bioinformaticscally calm

    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
