paired end data with varying read length
I have a paired end data with forward read length of 28bp and reverse read of 120bp. Is this some sequencing error? Will this cause error while mapping the paired data to a reference Genome using tools like bwa or bowtie2?

Is this scRNA-seq (or any other single-cell application)?
Hi manjumoorthy95, did you solve it. Now I have the same problem. The R1 has 74bp, but the R2 has just 9bp. And my dataset doesn't look like sing cell RNA-seq. I only have tens of samples.
Well, you should know what kind of data that is. Where is it from? 9bp is indeed rather short, so either some kind of index/barcode, for sure no biological read.
yes. 9bp is too short to have biological meaning. And I attached some information of the dataset sent from the people generating the dataset. Is it meaningful?
Type run: NextSeq protocol: R1 74bp | R2 9bp | I1 9bp PhiX spike in: 5%
No clue, why don't you simply ask them. Don't guess about data, talk to people.
