Run the Identify Variants (WGS) workflow

  1. To run the Identify Variants (WGS) template workflow, go to:

            Workflows | Template Workflows | Biomedical Workflows (Image biomedical_twf_folder_open_16_n_p) | Whole Genome Sequencing (Image whole_genome_folder_closed_16_n_p) | Somatic Cancer (Image somatic_folder_closed_16_n_p) | Identify Variants (WGS) (Image identify_variants_wgs_16_n_p)

  2. Select the trimmed sequencing reads from the sample that should be analyzed (figure 18.24).

    Figure 18.24: Please select trimmed sequencing reads from the sample to be analyzed.

    If several samples should be analyzed, the tool has to be run in batch mode. This is done by checking "Batch" and selecting the folder that holds the data you wish to analyze.

  3. In the next dialog, you have to select which reference data set should be used to identify variants (figure 18.25).

  4. In the Low Frequency Variant Detection dialog (figure 18.26), you can specify the parameters for variant detection.

  5. In the last wizard step you can check the selected settings by clicking on the button labeled Preview All Parameters. In the Preview All Parameters wizard you can only check the settings, and if you wish to make changes you have to use the Previous button from the wizard to edit parameters in the relevant windows.

  6. Choose to Save your results and click Finish.
