Hi, I have a sequencing run with ~3000 samples (attached dataset). The samples were initially tagged and amplified by PCR in duplicate. The tags used range from MID01 to MID26.
MID01-MID13 were used for pair 1 while MID14-MID26 were used for pair 2. The tags are re-used to allow samples to be pooled. The pooling process will involve mixing samples with MID01-26 into the first group, the next group samples with MID01-26 into the second group and so on. I'm hoping to get an R script that can create these groups such that for each group, any of the Tags appears only once. An example is shown below. ID TagA TagB group 180 MID03 MID10 group1 181 MID04 MID06 group1 182 MID05 MID07 group1 183 MID03 MID09 group2 184 MID04 MID10 group2 185 MID05 MID06 group2 186 MID01 MID06 group3 187 MID02 MID07 group3 188 MID03 MID08 group3 ______________________________________________________________________ This e-mail contains information which is confidential.
