Compared total amount of data generated from each index. The commands below send the output of the ‘ls -l’ command to awk. Awk sums the file sizes, found in the 5th field ($5) of the ‘ls -l’ command, then prints the sum, divided by 1024^3 to convert from bytes to gigabytes.
Index: CTTGTA
$ ls -l 2212_lane2_[C]* | awk '{sum += $5} END {print sum/1024/1024/1024}'

There’s ~1.4x data in the GCCAAT files.
Ran FASTQC on the following files downloaded earlier today:
2212_lane2_CTTGTA_L002_R1_001.fastq.gz
2212_lane2_CTTGTA_L002_R1_002.fastq.gz
2212_lane2_CTTGTA_L002_R1_003.fastq.gz
2212_lane2_CTTGTA_L002_R1_004.fastq.gz
2212_lane2_GCCAAT_L002_R1_001.fastq.gz
2212_lane2_GCCAAT_L002_R1_002.fastq.gz
2212_lane2_GCCAAT_L002_R1_003.fastq.gz
2212_lane2_GCCAAT_L002_R1_004.fastq.gz
2212_lane2_GCCAAT_L002_R1_005.fastq.gz
2212_lane2_GCCAAT_L002_R1_006.fastq.gz
The FASTQC command is below. This command runs FASTQC in a for loop over any files that begin with “2212_lane2_C” or “2212_lane2_G” and outputs the analyses to the Arabidopsis folder on Eagle:
$for file in /Volumes/nightingales/C_gigas/2212_lane2_[CG]*; do fastqc "$file" --outdir=/Volumes/Eagle/Arabidopsis/; done
From within the Eagle/Arabidopsis folder, I renamed the FASTQC output files to prepend today’s date:
$for file in 2212_lane2_[GC]*; do mv "$file" "20150413_$file"; done
Then, I unzipped the .zip files generated by FASTQC in order to have access to the images, to eliminate the need for screen shots for display in this notebook entry:
$for file in 20150413_2212_lane2_[CG]*.zip; do unzip "$file"; done
The unzip output retained the old naming scheme, so I renamed the unzipped folders:
$for file in 2212_lane2_[GC]*; do mv “$file” “20150413_$file”; done
