Hello,

I received this warning from my results: 98 regions were skipped because chromosome name was not found in the BAM file.

Is there a reason behind this? 

Originally my bed file was lifted from hg19 to hg38, and then the chromosome ID was changed from UCSC to RefSeq (due to the bam and bed file not having the same IDs).

Any ideas? Or is this normal?

Thanks,
Amy

Hi,

This warning reason is that certain annotated chromosome segments were not found to be present in the BAM file. This could be either if the alignment procedure was performed to the reference without these segments, or if there are some mixes/discrepancies in names of chromosomes in the BED file. The reference names present in the BAM file are listed in the "Chromosome stats" of the Summary segment in BAM QC report, so they could be inspected and compared to chromosome names that were noted as not found. 

Hope this helps,
   Konstantin

Hi Konstantin, 

That does help. My qualimap pdf is attached, as well as the bed file used. I can't really understand why there would be regions not in the bam, this is the reference sequence I used was the GCA_000001405.15_GRCh38_no_alt_analysis_set.fna.gz from https://ftp.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/genomes/all/GCA/000/001/405/GCA_000001405.15_GRCh38/seqs_for_alignment_pipelines.ucsc_ids/

Thank you!
Amy

Hi Amy,

sorry, but where is the BED file? I do not see it attached. How did you create it? The issue was exactly because some regions sequence IDs stated in the annotation file were not found in the BAM file.

Best,

Hi Konstantinos, 

I reran my analysis and it turned out fine, I think some of my reads went missing when fastp ran so I reran with cutadapt & qualimap worked fine after that! 

Thanks for your help!
Amy
