Prokka

Supported Tool

Prokka is a software tool for the rapid annotation of prokaryotic genomes.

Description

The Prokka module analyses summary results from the Prokka annotation pipeline for prokaryotic genomes. The Prokka module accepts two configuration options:

  • prokka_table: default False. Show a table in the report.
  • prokka_barplot: default True. Show a barplot in the report.
  • prokka_fn_snames: default False. Use filenames for sample names (see below).

Sample names are generated using the first line in the prokka reports:

organism: Helicobacter pylori Sample1

The module assumes that the first two words are the organism name and the third is the sample name. So the above will give a sample name of Sample1.

If you prefer, you can set config.prokka_fn_snames to True and MultiQC will instead use the log filename as the sample name.
