Hello Ateeq,

It looks like you are working with a bacterial genome. There has been some limited discussion on the Galaxy mailing list about using RNA-seq tools with circular genomes, but the best resources are probably the tool documentation itself (e.g. http://cufflinks.cbcb.umd.edu/manual.html#gene_exp_diff & http://cufflinks.cbcb.umd.edu/howitworks.html#hdif), the tool author's Q/A email tophat.cuffli...@gmail.com, and seqanswers.com.

From a quick check, it seems that the 'not significant' result is due to the value of "Test status" being "NOTEST".

Definition in documentation link above:
NOTEST (not enough alignments for testing)

Hopefully this helps,

Best,

Jen
Galaxy team

Dear galaxy user
After running cuffdiff on my two samples (SAM files from bowtie)
i got a list with p and q values, and löast colum is saying abou
significance
with P value, it seems like the comparison should be significant, but in
Q value is 1, and last coumn is saying not significant

any one have an idea, how to interpret it , should we take any
comparsion with less than 0.05 p value as significant or not

tables in excel looks like it

Nay help is welcome

best
Ateeq
