I am trying to do a mapping assembly of 454 data on to a reference genome. My call parameters are: mira --project=indica --job=mapping,genome,accurate,454 -AS:nop=4 -SB:load_backbone=yes:startbackboneusage_inpass=3:backbone_strainname=indica_backbone_in.fasta:backbone_filetype=fasta:bbq=-1 However, it requires quality scores for the backbone i.e it wants indica_backbone_in.fasta.qual which i dont have. How do i disable mira from requiring the quality files?
Well, MIRA will load a quality file if present, but won't stop (at least it should not).
Which version of MIRA are you using? In 3.4.0, MIRA loads the FASTA, sees that there's no quality file and just trots along. Here's the relevant part of the log output:
------------------------ snip ----------------------------------- Localtime: Sun May 6 19:46:46 2012Loading backbone from FASTA file: indica_backbone_in.fasta (quality: indica_backbone_in.fasta.qual) Could not find FASTA quality file indica_backbone_in.fasta.qual, using default values for these reads.
Localtime: Sun May 6 19:46:46 2012 Counting sequences in FASTA file: ------------------------ snip ----------------------------------- By the way: your contains two errors and a minor problem:1) (minor) -SB:sbuip is used only for combined mapping/de-novo assemblies. You do not do that here, so it's useless to state it. 2) -SB:bsn is the name of your backbone organism, not the name of a file. I.e., change
-SB:bsn=indica_backbone_in.fasta to something like -SB:bsn=IThinkThatStrainIsAnIndicaOrWhateverYouWantToNameThatThing3) -SB:bbq should be set independently of read qualities. Using bbq=-1 is usefull only for very special borderline cases. Go with a quality of "30": -SB:bbq=30
