    Quantifying Bowtie2 + vs - strand mapping?

    Hi I am interested in ways I can quantify and potentially bin + vs - strand mapping in my PE data from Bowtie2? Seeing some variability in which stand the read mapped to across the genome and wanted to look at it more. thanks

    To count the number of reads mapped on the forward strand:
    samtools view -c -F20 sample.bam

    and on the reverse:
    samtools view -c -f16 -F4 sample.bam

    Just omit the -c if you want to extract the reads (add -b to output in BAM format rather than SAM).

    There are lots more possibilities for filtering on SAM flags. This site is useful to help understand what the different flag codes mean mean:

      The part about this topic feels surprisingly grounded, and the details on the page is the bit that made me slow down. I’d keep <a href="https://kinpict.com/">ai family photo generator</a> bookmarked for later.

      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,...
