shore methyl quantifies methylated and unmethylated cytosines from BS-seq alignments (only genomemapper).

Command line options

Usage: shore methyl [OPTIONS]

Mandatory
-n STRING Name (any of species, strain, accession, project or any other ID)
-f STRING Reference genome sequence from the IndexFolder, *.shore file
-o STRING AnalysisFolder, will be created
-i STRING[,...] Shore directories or map.list file(s)
-g INT Core offset - do not trust the first and last -g positions of the alignment. default: max MM's

Short read alignments are prone to misalignments towards the ends of the read. This value specifies how many bases at each end will be regarded as suspicious.

Quality threshold
-q INT (Default: 5) Cutoff for base masking using Sanger calibrated qualities
-c INT Cutoff for base masking using chastity values
Basecalling (scoring matrix approach)
-a STRING Scoring matrix file (recommended, activates new basecalling approach)
-b FLOAT (Default: 0.2) Minimum allele frequency of alternative base call
Basecalling (decision tree approach)
-x INT (Default: 3) Minimum coverage threshold
-m INT (Default: 3) Maximum observed to expected coverage
-e FLOAT (Default: 0.1) Minimum observed to expected coverage
-y FLOAT (Default: 0.8) Minimum concordance of homozygous SNPs (0 to 1)
-d FLOAT (Default: 0.67) Minimum concordance of homozygous Indels
-t FLOAT (Default: 0.25) Minimum frequency for heterozygous pos (0 to 1)
-u FLOAT (Default: 0.02) Minimum frequency for minor allele pos (0 to 1)
-z INT (Default: 10) Quality threshold, max base quality
Optional
-v Create additional output files containing all intermediate data
-r Graphical output of statistics using R
