Hi, I hoped that someone could shed some light onto this .
I am attempting to map a set of 2x 150 illumina PE data from a DNA resequencing project. The run had an issue where the quality of the last 50 or so reads of the second run tail off quite considerably. I thought to trim the second read such that the poorer sequence bases are stripped form the end of the read. I attempted to do this using the FASTQ quality trimmer then mapping both reads using bowtie. When I did this however, I went from an alignment of 34% passing filter reads aligned not trimmed (which is not good to start off with), to 0.18%. trim command was set as defaults: Any ideas what I could be doing wrong? ******************************************************************************************************************** This message may contain confidential information.
