CoGe has a built-in SNP finding pipeline! To find SNPs in an existing alignment-type experiment, select the "Find SNPs" analysis tool in the ExperimentView page.

Find SNPs function highlighted in red

An alignment-type experiment in CoGe is created by loading a BAM file. See LoadExperiment for instruction on how to do this.

The CoGe SNP finding pipeline detects SNPs that meet the following criteria:

  • minimum read depth of 10 (of any base quality value)
  • minimum high-quality allele count of 4 (high quality is PHRED >= 20)
  • minimum allele frequency of 10%.

The SAMtools mpileup function is used to generate read depth counts for the BAM file.
