Simulate dataset with samtools, align with Bowtie, BWA, MAQ and pileup
This is an old blog post, migrated from my blogspot account. How much of this information is still valid I don’t know.
Place your reference in to phi.fa (phix reference). Bowtie in bowtie subdirectory. Samtools in samtools subdirectory. Bwa in bwa subdirectory. Maq in the maq subdirectory. cd in to each directory and type make to build them. The phix reference I used had additional characters in the reference tag line which confused samtools when used with bwa. The sed in the following script removes them. The script also aligns each end of the simulated pair independently.
