Large Bam, But Small Mpileup (Samtools Mpileup)
Hi folks,
When converted from a bam (5G) for a sample, the mpileup was too small (400K).
(>> samtools mpileup -BQ0 -d 1000000 -f hg19.fasta my_sorted.bam > my_sorted.bam.mpileup) <- this works for other samples.
BAM file was normally created by BWA.
I've checked a pile of reads in a region of the BAM but ZERO read counts in the mpileup.
I can't figure out why...
any suggestion?
thanks in advance.

Does it look fine under igv or another viewer?
BTW, why is this listed as a tool?
