I've been performing RNA-seq according to https://bioinformatics.uconn.edu/rnaseq-arabidopsis/ , following the hisat2-stringtie-ballgown pipeline, but it gave very high p-value and q-value, I've tried many different parameters, but it doesn't change. I am not sure if there are anything wrong in my pipeline.

I build the hisat_index by

pythotract_splice_sites.py /mnt/chaelab/donghui/TAIR10/gtf/Arabidopsis_thaliana.TAIR10.42.gtf >/mnt/chaelab/donghui/TAIR10/new_index/TAIR10.ss
python extract_exons.py /mnt/chaelab/donghui/TAIR10/gtf/Arabidopsis_thaliana.TAIR10.42.gtf >/mnt/chaelab/donghui/TAIR10/new_index/TAIR10.exon
hisat2-build --ss /mnt/chaelab/donghui/TAIR10/new_index/TAIR10.ss --exon /mnt/chaelab/donghui/TAIR10/new_index/TAIR10.exon /mnt/chaelab/donghui/TAIR10/TAIR10_chr_all.fas /mnt/chaelab/donghui/TAIR10/new_index/index

trim raw_data by AfterQC,

for i in {12,13,15,16}
do 
    python2 /mnt/chaelab/donghui/download/AfterQC-master/after.py -1 hisat/SRR34982${i}.fastq
done

then run the pipeline:

gtf=/mnt/chaelab/donghui/TAIR10/gtf/Arabidopsis_thaliana.TAIR10.42.gtf
index=/mnt/chaelab/donghui/TAIR10/new_index/index

mkdir 1_hisat 2_samtools_bam 3_stringtie_gtf 4_stringtie_merge 5_stringtie_for_ballgown


for i in {12,13,15,16}
do 
    hisat2 -p 8 --dta -x $index -q good/SRR34982${i}.good.fq -S 1_hisat/SRR34982${i}.sam 
done

for i in {12,13,15,16}
do
    samtools sort -@ 8 -o 2_samtools_bam/SRR34982${i}.bam 1_hisat/SRR34982${i}.sam 
done

for i in {12,13,15,16}
do
    stringtie -p 8 -G $gtf -o 3_stringtie_gtf/SRR34982${i}.gtf -l SRR34982${i} 2_samtools_bam/SRR34982${i}.bam 
done

ls 3_stringtie_gtf/*.gtf > 3_stringtie_gtf/assebly_GTF_list.txt
stringtie --merge -p 8 -o 4_stringtie_merge/merged_gtf.gtf -G $gtf 3_stringtie_gtf/assebly_GTF_list.txt

for i in {12,13,15,16}
do
    mkdir 5_stringtie_for_ballgown/SRR34982${i}
    stringtie -e -B -p 8 -G 4_stringtie_merge/merged_gtf.gtf -o 5_stringtie_for_ballgown/SRR34982${i}/SRR34982${i}.gtf 2_samtools_bam/SRR34982${i}.bam 
done

Then the R script:

library(ballgown)
library(RSkittleBrewer)
library(genefilter)
library(dplyr)
library(ggplot2)
library(gplots)
library(devtools)

dir <- "/mnt/chaelab/donghui/root_shoot/"
setwd(dir)

pheno_data <- data.frame( ID = c('SRR3498212','SRR3498213', 'SRR3498215', 'SRR3498216'),
                          Type= c( 'root','root','shoot', 'shoot'))

bg <- ballgown(dataDir = "5_stringtie_for_ballgown", samplePattern = 'SRR34982', pData = pheno_data )
print(bg)

ballgown instance with 54127 transcripts and 4 samples

#remove low-abundance genes ( 0 and 1 )
bg_filt <- subset(bg,"rowVars(texpr(bg)) >1", genomesubset=TRUE)
print(bg_filt)

ballgown instance with 18483 transcripts and 4 samples

results_transcripts <- stattest(bg_filt, feature = "transcript", covariate = "Type", getFC = TRUE, meas = "FPKM")

results_transcripts <- data.frame(geneNames = ballgown::geneNames(bg_filt), 
                                 geneIDs = ballgown::geneIDs(bg_filt), 
                                 results_transcripts)
summary(results_transcripts)
head(results_transcripts, n = 500)

subset(results_transcripts,results_transcripts$qval<0.05)

results_transcripts = arrange(results_transcripts,pval)
write.csv(results_transcripts, "afterqc_transcript_results.csv", row.names=FALSE)

however, the result shows very high q-val,

and no transcripts showd qval<0.05, quite opposite from the https://bioinformatics.uconn.edu/rnaseq-arabidopsis/

I meet the same problem and I also want to find out the mistakes.
