Introduction

sanger-tol/genomenote is a bioinformatics pipeline that takes aligned HiC reads, creates contact maps and chromosomal grid using Cooler, and display on a HiGlass server. The pipeline also collates (1) assembly information, statistics and chromosome details from NCBI datasets, (2) genome completeness from BUSCO, (3) consensus quality and k-mer completeness from MerquryFK, (4) HiC primary mapped percentage from samtools flagstat and optionally (5) Annotation statistics from AGAT and BUSCO. The pipeline combines the calculated statistics and collated assembly metadata with a template document to output a genome note document.

<!----> <!-- TODO nf-core: Include a figure that guides the user through the major workflow steps. Many nf-core workflows use the "tube map" design for that. See https://nf-co.re/docs/guidelines/graphic_design/workflow_diagrams#examples for examples. --> <!-- TODO nf-core: Fill in short bullet-pointed list of the default steps in the pipeline -->2. Present QC for raw reads ([`MultiQC`](http://multiqc.info/))

Usage

[!NOTE] If you are new to Nextflow and nf-core, please refer to this page on how to set-up Nextflow. Make sure to test your setup with -profile test before running the workflow on actual data.

First, prepare a samplesheet with your input data that looks as follows:

samplesheet.csv:

sample,datatype,datafile
mMelMel3,hic,/analysis/mMelMel3.2_paternal_haplotype/read_mapping/hic/GCA_922984935.2.unmasked.hic.mMelMel3.cram
mMelMel3,pacbio,/genomic_data/mMelMel3/pacbio/kmer/k31

Each row represents an aligned HiC reads file, an unaligned PacBio/10X reads file, or a PacBio/10X k-mer database.

Now, you can run the pipeline using:

nextflow run sanger-tol/genomenote \
   -profile <docker/singularity/.../institute> \
   --input samplesheet.csv \
   --fasta genome.fasta \
   --assembly GCA_922984935.2 \
   --biosample_wgs SAMEA112198456 \
   --biosample_hic SAMEA112198479 \
   --biosample_rna SAMEA112232914 \
   --outdir <OUTDIR>

[!WARNING] Please provide pipeline parameters via the CLI or Nextflow -params-file option. Custom config files including those provided by the -c Nextflow option can be used to provide any configuration except for parameters; see docs.

For more details, please refer to the usage documentation and the parameter documentation.
