Re: [galaxy-user] Bowtie Seed length (-l) and non-unique reads mode (m=-1)

Hi there,

I have two questions regarding alignment using Bowtie:

1. Is there a way to set the Seed Length (-l) to the full length of each
read instead of using a single Seed Length for all reads?
The seed length is a single input value for all sequences in any 
particular job.




2. When using m = -1 mode (Suppress all alignments for a read if more
than n reportable alignments exist (-m): OFF), will a read be randomly
assigned to one of the alignment positions in the genome? Or, will all
the alignments for one single read be reported in the final output .bam
file.
If alignment are not suppressed, then all reportable hits are in the 
output.

This is incorrect. If alignments are not suppressed, then reporting -a 
(all) is not the default. Rather, there are several 'reporting options', 
and they are used in combination and with 'alignment options' to achieve 
different output results. It is probably best to show you the 
documentation, so that you can compare different parameters and output 
they produce. Please see:

Hopefully this clears up any confusion my original reply may have caused!
