Graph construction with PGGB

Files preparation

Note

Fasta must be mereged in a single file, for instance using cat *.fasta > out.fa. Then, it needs to be indexed with samtools faidx out.fa. Just specify the main out.fa file when using PGGB, it will find the indexed file by itself.

Build graph from multifasta files

In the case you build from multiple individuals (files) with many entries (fasta fields), each . You will find reference to the files in the P-lines:

  • the name given to the sample (cactus pipeline file) will be in the first field.
  • the name of each fasta header will be in the third field.

PGGB output

The pipeline outputs six different graphs, that corresponds to different steps of the pipeline.
