Output from Target Region Coverage Analysis

Two outputs are produced from the Target Region Coverage Analysis tool:

Target region coverage track

The target region coverage track includes the following annotations:

Annotation coverage track

The annotation coverage track provides combined statistics for target regions overlapping the same annotation region. If the target regions correspond to exons and a gene track is selected as annotation track, all exons within a gene are combined and statistics are reported per gene. For each sample, the metric values from overlapping target regions are combined to a single metric value. The selected metric dictates how values are combined: Min coverage values are combined by taking the minimum, Max coverage values are combined by taking that maximum and Mean coverage and GC% values are combined as a weighted average, where each target region is weighted by its length. Median coverage values are combined by calculating the median of the values, however, it should be noted that this is different from calculating the median of all base position coverage values contained in the set of target regions.

The annotation coverage track includes the following annotations:
