Hi,

I am using the windshield splatter workflow to analyse my amplicons, However Galaxy Megablast can not handle Miseq PE reads due to the large nb of reads compared to 454. I appreciate if someone would suggest to me how it can be dealt with.

1- Doing local Megablast would still take huge amount of time for each sample

2 - If Assembling PE reads into contigs and blasting this reference would solve the problem but how to go from there using Galaxy?

Thanks for your help,

Ali

Hello,

The best strategy when using the public Main instance (http://usegalaxy.org) is often to break jobs up into smaller chunks. This is a good idea for many large datasets, regardless of technology. The other option is to move to a cloud instance with more resources.
