    Reg Picard MarkDuplicates

    Hi

    I am beginner in python. I am trying to automate the process of variant calling for the whole genome sequencing data for plants in ubuntu. We wrote commands for each software (by giving path) and integrated all software's in python. I am having a problem when i execute the script, where the script file could not run picard tools Mark Duplicates. It did not give any error but process wont continue after that, whereas when i use same tool, picard markduplicates in terminal its working fine without any error. Can anyone help me in trouble shooting this.

    Example script that we wrote

    import subprocess,os,commands

    m=raw_input("Enter the project destination")

    os.environ["JAVA_HOME"]="/usr/java/jdk1.8.0_121/lib/visualvm/platform/modules"

    os.chdir('/home/sukesh/picard-tools')

    os.system('java -jar picard.jar MarkDuplicates I='+m+'/6SAMTOBAM/sortIRGSP.bam
    O='+m+'/7MARKDUPS/dups.bam REMOVE_DUPLICATES=false METRICS_FILE=metricN.log ASSUME_SORTED=True VALIDATION_STRINGENCY=LENIENT')

    os.chdir('/home/Downloads')

    Or is there any other tool which can mark duplicates other than samtools which will be more helpful?

    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
