Hi Andrew,
nice explanation, Thanx for that.
I am thinking of doing the same kind of stuff and don't know whether it is possible. The difference in my case is I have raw genome sequence available. Since I am working on a non-model organism, there is no annotation or poor annotation available.
Can you please explain what would be the scenario in this case? The reason for this analysis is I am seeing lots of gene variation in three different strains of the specimen at strain level rather than treatment level. So I am trying to find explanation for this situation using sequence variation in these three different strains. I have pooled SNP's using GATK from all three strain taking raw genome sequence as a reference. But I still can not find strain wise difference. This obviously leads me to look at any eQTL detection if possible.
Do you have any other suggestion for this question? Any help is much appreciated!! THanks AMoL
