#284 Bos Taurus Index

[Anonymous]

Hello,

I have recently begun mapping with the index on the Bowtie website, but I found problems in other applications because the SAM header generated by Bowtie with the cow genome index is invalid. About 400 of the @SQ records are duplicated. Could you update the cow index, so that everyone who uses them can get valid output SAM files ?

Our fault -- we included the ChrY-contigs and contigs.SHOTGUN_ONLY FASTA files, both of which are subsets of the ChrU FASTA file. We will fix this by uploading a new index with those FASTA file omitted. Thank you for the report!

Best,
ben
