Estimating Insert Size From Paired End Data.
Hi,I have paired end data from illumina. To estimate the insert size in silico ( from scratch ), I have aligned the reads as single end reads to the genome ( mouse ). Now I have the two alignment files...
View ArticleDoes The Mapping Of A Read'S Pair Affect Its Own Mapping Score In Bwa?
I would like to know more about how BWA treats the mapping score of paired end reads. I am familiar with the process used to assign mapping scores by BWA (thanks to this post). I see that the mapping...
