Hello I would like to disable seeding when doing a sequence mapping using bwa. Apparently, this is commonly performed using the aln -l option set at a value higher than the read length, and is often set at values above 1000. In Galaxy, the default option is -1 for this parameter, and it is indicated that -1 corresponds to infinity. Does that mean that seeding can be disabled using -1, and that it is disabled by default on Galaxy? I don't obtain exactly the same thing using -1 or 16000 for this parameter, even though the difference is marginal. Thanks for your insights Thierry Institut Jacques MONOD Paris

Hello Thierry, Yes, to set the job parameters with no seeding, using the default setting for this parameter ("-1", aka infinity) is a standard method. If you read what people are doing, they are split into two camps. Some go with the default (infinity). Some go with really high -l value, 10k or so. Both are producing results in publication analysis. I think the choice is yours. Take care, Jen Galaxy team -- Jennifer Hillman-Jackson http://galaxyproject.org
