Cuffdiff: How to see the FPKM of each gene in each one of the samples in the groups?

In the Cuffdiff outputs I can see the FPKM of each gene in the groups, but how can I get the FPKM of each gene in each one of the samples in the groups???

rna-seq

As far as I know that information is not available. Very annoying.

Edit: apparently that information is available though well hidden from view! Will the wonders every cease!

As juafonso_bio has already found out, the FPKM values in the output of Cuffdiff can be found in the file genes.read_group_tracking. The replicates are identified by numbers, starting at 0. The correspondance between the replicate number and the sample name can be found in the file read_groups.info.

Here is an example.

-bash-4.1$ more genes.read_group_tracking 
tracking_id condition   replicate   raw_frags   internal_scaled_frags   external_scaled_frags   FPKM    effective_length    status

Found it. The FPKM of each gene in each one of the samples in the group (replicates) is at the genes.read_group_tracking, an output of Cufflinks. This information can also be found in the .estim_out files that are outputs of Stringtie, but them you need to open each file in the analysis of each sample.
