    BBMAP paired-end alignment problem

    Hi All

    Trying to use bbmap to align some Illumina PE reads. My command line looks like this

    Code:
    bbmap.sh overwrite=t ref=A.fasta in=R1_001_val_1.100.fq in2=R2_001_val_2.100.fq minid=0.25 mappedonly=true out=out.sam  outu=unaligned_reads.fa maxindel=100000
    When I do this out.sam contains alignments of only read1 though the log indicates that read2 reads were aligned

    Code:
    Read 1 data:            pct reads       num reads       pct bases          num bases
    
    mapped:                 100.0000%             100       100.0000%              29779

    If I change the command line to

    Code:
    bbmap.sh overwrite=t ref=A.fasta in=R2_001_val_2.100.fq minid=0.25 mappedonly=true out=out.sam  outu=unaligned_reads.fa maxindel=100000
    Read2 reads are indeed aligned.

    Any thoughts what I'm doing wrong not to get paired end alignments with the first command line? I am using BBMap version 35.92.

    Thanks

    Mark

    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
