Map long ONT reads onto a reference genome

Input:

Code Block
- ref_genome.fasta
- ref_list.txt  # length of sequences in the above file: Accession "tab" Length (i.e., NC001477  10735)
- sample FASTQ file(s)

Prepare a script, for example, called ‘launch_variant_analysis.pbs’ that contains the following information:

Code Block
#!/bin/bash -l
#PBS -N nano-Q
#PBS -l walltime=24:00:00
#PBS -l mem=16gb
#PBS -l ncpus=8

cd $PBS_O_WORKDIR
