fastq-tools

This package provides a number of small and efficient programs to perform common tasks with high throughput sequencing data in the FASTQ format. All of the programs work with typical FASTQ files as well as gzipped FASTQ files.

index

The following programs are provided. See the individual man pages for more information.

  • fastq-sort : sort fastq entries by various keys

  • fastq-grep : match sequences against regular expressions

  • fastq-kmers : count k-mer occurrences

  • fastq-match : (smith-waterman) local sequence alignment

  • fastq-qual : tabulate quality scores

  • fastq-sample : randomly sample reads, with or without replacement

  • fastq-uniq : count duplicate reads

  • fastq-qualadj : adjust quality scores by a fixed offset

install

On most systems, installation is as simple as ./configure && make install.

If the source was obtained from the git repository, the included ./autogen.sh script must be run first to generate the configure script.

The only external dependencies are PCRE (http://www.pcre.org/) and zlib (http://zlib.net/).

contribute

If you have written any small but useful programs to deal with FASTQ files, please consider submitting them for inclusion in fastq-tools. Check out the Github page (https://github.com/dcjones/fastq-tools) or send mail to the author ([email protected]).
