SPLiNTER is a Nextflow DSL2 bioinformatics pipeline for the analysis of short read (Illumina) whole genome sequencing data of DNA extracted from wastewater. It was created by using a modified version of the Monroe PE QC bioinformatics pipeline and Freyja.
SPLiNTER uses a reference-based alignment to determine the number of SNPs in each sample and derive QC metrics and assembly data. Freyja is then used to calculate the relative lineage abundance.
- Nextflow v21+
- conda3
At this time, full paths are required to launch the pipeline.
nextflow run ~/splinter-nf/main.nf --reads {input} -profile docker --primerPath {path_to_bedfile}
\ --reference {path_to_ref} --outdir {output}
Future development will involve manipulating the Freyja output so that it is more usable in R
