    Salmon: library type disagreement

    Hi all,

    I have been testing out salmon on RNA-seq data and am wondering what I should do about this output regarding library type. Basically, I set the expected library type to expect 'inward stranded reads coming from the reverse strand' (ISR), as this is what has worked in the past with the same data. More info on library types can be found here.

    Code:
        
        "read_files": "( 3_TTAGGC_R1_001_merged.fastq.gz, 3_TTAGGC_R2_001_merged.fastq.gz )",
        "expected_format": "ISR",
        "compatible_fragment_ratio": 0.8452727256532248,
        "num_compatible_fragments": 38623083,
        "num_assigned_fragments": 45693043,
        "num_consistent_mappings": 39307792,
        "num_inconsistent_mappings": 10928813,
        "MSF": 0,
        "OSF": 14686,
        "ISF": 888461,
        "MSR": 0,
        "OSR": 51469,
        "ISR": 39307792,
        "SF": 1996372,
        "SR": 7961581,
        "MU": 0,
        "OU": 0,
        "IU": 0,
        "U": 0
    Here most of the reads are agreeing with the expected library type, but some indicate that they come from the forward strand. Why is this? Is this an accurate reflection of the read data or is it dependent on how salmon looks at the reads?

    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
