Example reference FASTAs

Ryan Wick edited this page Feb 26, 2019 · 3 revisions

This page shows a couple of example reference FASTAs for Badread. They use depth= and circular= to control how Badread behaves. The ... lines aren't part of the FASTA, they just mean 'more sequence'.

Example bacterial genome reference FASTA

>chromosome depth=1.0 circular=true
GTGTCACTTTCGCTTTGGCAGCAGTGTCTTGCCCGATTGCAGGATGAGTTACCAGCCACAGAATTCAGCA
...
>plasmid depth=1.3 circular=true
ATGACGAGCGAAAATAACAGCTTACTTCTGAACCTTCAGGAAGTTGATAAGACAACCGGCGAAGTTGTTA

Example eukaryote genome reference FASTA

>chromosome_I depth=1.0

If you want to be explicit, you can include circular=false in the headers for linear sequences. But Badread assumes linearity by default, so you can just leave it out (as shown with the eukaryote example's chromosomes).
