Hi,

BWA-MEM in Galaxy produces a BAM file. Could anyone please tell me if the BAM file is sorted (by chromosome coordinates) and/or index?

I found NGS:SAMtools/Sort BAM file is able to do the sorting, but I don't know which tools in Galaxy can index a BAM file (similar to samtools index)...

Thank you very much in advance!

Hi,

all BAM files are by default coordinate sorted and indexed in Galaxy. You don't need to deal with this as user :)

Ciao,
