Hi @Mehrbod_Estaki ,
Thanks a lot for your observations! I'll put it into practice and return later with better results.
But before that, I would like to clear some doubts:
I'm sorry this is the wrong input, I've runned dada2 without the output from cutadapt, I'll run correctly now.
I've runned cutadapt with --p-discard-untrimmed
:
qiime cutadapt trim-single \
--i-demultiplexed-sequences single-end-demux.qza \
--p-front CCTACGGGNGGCWGCAG \
--o-trimmed-sequences trimmed_seq_single.qza \
--p-error-rate 0 \
--p-discard-untrimmed \
--verbose
qiime demux summarize \
--i-data trimmed_seq_single.qza \
--o-visualization trimmed_seq_single.qzv
Here you can visualize my quality plot, and I have some questions about the trim and trunc parameters after cutadapt: trimmed_seq_single.qzv (296.1 KB)
Based on the middle of the box in the positions of the quality plot at my 5', we can see a low Qscore in 43 and 44 nt but in the 79 nt, where are other odd dip, we can see a Qscore 38 looking for the middle of the box. So based in this observations and looking for the quality in the 3' I thought about running --p-trim-left 45
and --p-trunc-len 235
, is that correct?
Thank you so much! I'll take a look in this discussion and try to apply in my data
I don't understand my error here, I based my truncating in the extract-reads
based on this discussion. I used the truncating parameter based on the length of my resulting amplicon (240-40 = 200) and set --p-min-length
and --p-max-length
to 0. How can I identify the region where my ASVs are correctly represented? I have to insert --p-trunc-len
and --p-trim-left
in my code with the same parameters as I used in dada2?
Thanks in advance!
