Transcriptome Alignment & Bedgraph – Olympia oyster transcriptome with Olurida_v080 genome assembly

Yesterday, I produced a bedgraph file of our Olympia oyster RNAseq data coverage using our Olurida_v081 genome.

I decided that I wanted to use the Olurida_v080 version instead (or, in addtion to?), as the Olurida_v080 version has not been size restricted (the Olurida v081 version is only contigs >1000bp). I feel like we could miss some important regions, so wanted to run this analysis using all of the genome data we currently have available. Additionally, this will be consistent with [my previous Bismark (DNA methylation analysis)(2018/09/13/dna-methylation-analysis-olympia-oyster-whole-genome-bsseq-bismark-pipeline-comparison.html).

Used HISAT2 on our HPC Mox node to align our RNAseq reads to our Olurida_v080 genome assembly:

NOTE: For brevity sake, I have not listed all of the input RNAseq files below. Please see the full script, which is linked above.
