Hi everyone,

I ran Bowtie2, mapping my MiSeq reads against a plasmid (8kb) I had to find out if there was any matches. Instead of the usual % matches, the output I got was:

Settings: Output files: "genome.*.bt2" Line rate: 6 (line is 64 bytes) Lines per side: 1 (side is 64 bytes) Offset rate: 4 (one in 16) FTable chars: 10 Strings: unpacked Max bucket size: default Max bucket size, sqrt multiplier: default

I had to change the reference genome to 'one from history' and selected the plasmid sequence.

Am I doing this right? How do I open this file?

Many thanks!

Joseph

Hello,

Files named like "genome.*.bt2" are index files for this tool. To use a Custom reference genome in Galaxy, provide a fasta dataset - the option that you switched to. Full instructions are here: http://wiki.galaxyproject.org/Support#Custom_reference_genome

Thanks! Jen, Galaxy team
