ShortRead

This package is for version 3.2 of Bioconductor; for the stable, up-to-date release version, see ShortRead.

FASTQ input and manipulation

Bioconductor version: 3.2

This package implements sampling, iteration, and input of FASTQ files. The package includes functions for filtering and trimming reads, and for generating a quality assessment report. Data are represented as DNAStringSet-derived objects, and easily manipulated for a diversity of purposes. The package also contains legacy support for early single-end, ungapped alignment formats.
