Hi,
I have paired-end bam files (exomes) for two groups each with multiple individuals (all from one species, non-viral). I am interested to get information as mentioned here http://www.ark-genomics.org/bioinformatics/virome Would it be possible to do with `Rsamtools`? I am in the process of learning `Rsamtools` and getting stuck with how to process all files together to get final output. My aim is to retrieve genes and SNPs from this species as compared to reference (with same genus). Kindly guide.
Thanks!
Welcome! Can you ask a more specific question? Also, depending on what you are interested in, the GenomicAlignments (for a little more straight-forward data output data structures) package and GenomicFiles (for working with collections of BAM files) packages might be worth a look. Be sure to check out the vignettes.
Thanks! I want to retrieve different parameters from bam files such as which chromosome from each file has most coverage, to look for specific genes etc. and then their plots as shown here http://www.ark-genomics.org/bioinformatics/virome
