How snippy makes MSA-like aligned fasta output from multiple samples?
From the log file it seems snippy doesn't do assembly. It only does mapping:
fastq --> SAM --> BAM --> VCF --> consensus_seq/snps
But if multiple ...

Visual representation of detecting deletion by different read types
I'm having some trouble differentiating between CNV, split reads and read pairs and how each one elucidates the presence of a structural variation, say deletion.
Given a reference and donor sequence,...

How to control/normalize for number of reads when calling SNPs using RNA-Seq?
I used the GATK pipeline to call SNPs on males and females using RNA-Seq data. But the males have a higher read count (~43-46M reads) than the females (~40-42M reads). This causes SNP counts to be ...
