HybPiper

HybPiper was designed for targeted sequence capture (Hyb-Seq), in which DNA sequences of interest are enriched from genomic libraries. It recovers the target coding sequences (and optionally flanking regions) from high-throughput sequencing reads, for use in phylogenomics.

Available

  • Roihu: 2.3.4, via the bio-apps module.

Usage

HybPiper is part of the bio-apps collection on Roihu. Load the bio-apps module tree and then the HybPiper module:

module load bio-apps/v202603
module load hybpiper/2.3.4

For a single sample, assemble the target loci from paired-end reads:

hybpiper assemble -t_dna target_file.fasta -r sample_R1.fastq sample_R2.fastq --prefix sample --cpu 8

Example batch script

#!/bin/bash
#SBATCH --job-name=hybpiper
#SBATCH --account=<project>
#SBATCH --output=output_%j.txt
#SBATCH --error=errors_%j.txt
#SBATCH --partition=small
#SBATCH --time=08:00:00
#SBATCH --nodes=1
#SBATCH --ntasks=1
#SBATCH --cpus-per-task=8
#SBATCH --mem-per-cpu=4G

module load bio-apps/v202603
module load hybpiper/2.3.4

hybpiper assemble -t_dna target_file.fasta -r sample_R1.fastq sample_R2.fastq \
    --prefix sample --cpu $SLURM_CPUS_PER_TASK

Replace <project> with your CSC project (for example project_2001234).
