Abstract: Analyzing the data deluge generated by next generation sequencing technologies is a challenging task. Variant calling aids in characterizing phenotype of an organism. The objective of this ...
I googled 'samtools download' and was presented with a website "samtools.org" that looks for all the world like a malware distribution site. The insane graph they have is clearly AI generated. What is ...
Abstract: Whole genome sequencing (WGS) technologies have enabled high-throughput cost-effective genome sequencing at the population scale. A single WGS instrument can sequence millions of DNA ...
I have noticed that samtools consensus command always uses 1 thread despite more (-@ 8) threads have been specified in the command. As shown in the processing time stats below, multiple thread ...
Bioinformaticsis a rapidly evolving field filled with a plethora of tools for processing and manipulating next-generation sequencing (NGS) data. The performance of NGS alignment tools continues to ...
SNAP is a program that is part of a gene sequencing pipeline. It takes data from gene sequencing hardware that consists of short chunks of DNA (typically 70-300 base pairs long) called reads and ...

As reliable, efficient genome sequencing becomes ubiquitous, the need for similarly reliable and efficient variant calling becomes increasingly important. The Genome Analysis Toolkit (GATK), ...
Current variant callers are not suitable for single-cell DNA sequencing, as they do not account for allelic dropout, false-positive errors and coverage nonuniformity ...
