Popcorn using SNPs with extremely low P-value
Popcorn using SNPs with extremely low P-value 0 I would like to use Popcorn to assess genetic corrleation between different populations. However, the summary statistics for one population contains a very small P-value, such as P-value=5.0×10^-1200. Perhaps that is why I cannot calculate the genetic correlation including this summary statistics….

The genetic structure of populations of Isthmiophora melis (Schrank, 1788) (Digenea: Echinostomatidae). Does the host’s diet matter? | Parasites & Vectors
Digeneans are one of the most unique and the most numerous groups of parasitic Platyhelminthes. Their life cycle is complex, with few parthenogenetic and a single hermaphroditic generation [21]. Due to the complexity of the life cycle, these parasites are frequently subject to various modifications to their life strategies. There…

Mollusk Mitochondrial Sequencing Services – Lifeasible
The mitochondrial genome structure of mollusks shows a high degree of variability involving many genomic features, i.e., length, gene arrangement, strand assignment, gene duplication and loss, nucleotide composition, etc. It shows extensive variation in mollusks, gastropods, and bivalves, even within the same family or genus. Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) has been…

Somatic variant calling mutect2 ctDNA liquid biopsy
Somatic variant calling mutect2 ctDNA liquid biopsy 0 Hi! I am trying to call ctDNA somatic variants in a sample that comes from liquid biopsy of a cancer patient. I also have a healthy control that comes from an in-house plasma sample. I want to apply mutect2 but I have…
–update-name not working – possibly because of comma delim?
Hi there, I have two separate sets of gwas data (‘A’ and ‘B’) with a file per chr. I am running a targeted gene/pathway analysis so I have filtered out snps per each gene location (209 snps = 209 filtered gene-specific files). For dataset A I ran the following commands:…
BugBitten Molecular detection of multiple schistosome species and their hybrids using a single PCR assay
Schistosomiasis is a disease of global medical and veterinary importance, caused by parasitic flatworms of the genus Schistosoma. Around 200 million people, and an untold number (possibly in the billions) of animals are estimated to be infected, globally. Certain schistosome species can infect humans (e.g. Schistosoma mansoni and S. haematobium),…
There is a new RFLP locus identified for Brassica
Transcribed image text: There is a new RFLP locus identified for Brassica rapa named Park13. Below are the two possible alleles for this locus: SnpT and SnpS. Both alleles are the same total length (1200 bp:1). but they have different restriction enzyme cut sites when digested with BamHI. You will…
KING kinship inference error
KING kinship inference error 2 Hello, I’m trying to use KING for estimating kinship between individuals. I have a vcf file that resulted from a de novo assembly of ddrad seq data. First, I tried to convert my vcf file to .bed file using Plink2.0, but it failed saying that…
Sample based on allele frequency matching between two files
Sample based on allele frequency matching between two files 0 I have two files, each of which has the SNP_ID and its allele frequency. File 1 has a set of 200 SNPs (subset from my genome) and their respective allele frequencies, whereas File 2 is every SNP in the genome…
Linkage Disequilibrium with Plink
Good afternoon! It’s great to see you getting into bioinformatics. I can definitely help you get started with your linkage disequilibrium (LD) analysis using Plink. Here’s a general workflow to perform LD analysis using Plink with your Saccharomyces cerevisiae samples: First, you need to install Plink if you haven’t already….
How to find DNA sequence of a SNP without reference genome? (I have a .vcf file)
How to find DNA sequence of a SNP without reference genome? (I have a .vcf file) 0 Hi. I have a “VCF” file that i’ve created “de novo”. That is, I have NOT mapped my reads to a reference genome, but rather constructed this VCF by utilizing sequence similarity. Within…

Solved The K-ras gene produces an important signaling
Transcribed image text: The K-ras gene produces an important signaling peptide that leads to cell cycle induction. It is a proto-oncogene and dominant gain of function mutations can lead to cancer. The gene is found on chromosome 12 in humans and the wild type form has two palindromic sequences reco…
Annotate vcf file using GNOMAD
Hi, I use a loop for that. Something like this to inspire you: # Enter folder where gnomAD data are here: gnomAD=”/path/to/gnomAD/database/release/3.1.2/gnomad.genomes.v3.1.2.sites.” # Enter the folder where your results are and will be annotated further cd /path/to/your/results/folder/ # Enter the name of the final results’ file from SnpSift ann=”results.ann.gnomAD.genomes.v3.1.2.vcf” #…

Variants in Clinvar which are not linked to dbSNP
I have recently found some variants which appear in Clinvar searching by coordinate but not by their RS ID. ID: rs111254723 Clinvar: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/clinvar/variation/2445388/ dbSNP: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/snp/rs111254723#clinical_significance This is an example of one of them. The same variant appears in dbSNP searching by its RS identifier, but its clinical significance field is…
Using a transcriptome from Trinity in Phyluce
Using a transcriptome from Trinity in Phyluce 0 Hi there, I’m working with multiple RNA seq samples. These samples belong to bird blood infected with malaria parasites. The genome reference for the parasite species is not available. Most of my reads belong to bird and I’m not interesting on them…only…
