FastQ Screen
Supported Tool
FastQ Screen allows you to screen a library of sequences in FastQ format against a set of sequence databases so you can see if the composition of the library matches with what you expect.
Description
The FastQ Screen module parses results generated by FastQ Screen, a tool that allows you to screen a library of sequences in FastQ format against a set of sequence databases so you can see if the composition of the library matches with what you expect.
By default, the module creates a plot that emulates the FastQ Screen output
with blue and red stacked bars showing unique and multimapping read counts.
This plot only works for a handful of samples however, so if
# samples * # organisms >= 160, a simpler stacked barplot is shown. This
is also shown when generating flat-image plots.
To always show this style of plot, add the following line to a MultiQC config file:
fastqscreen_simpleplot: trueFile search patterns
fastq_screen:
fn: "*_screen.txt"
