Alignment Viewer

Hi, I have mitochondrial DNA sequences bam files which are the output of the alignment to its references. I used bcftools to identify the variants. I am now advised to confirm about the variants manually. I am looking forward to know about the current methods to verify the identified variants in the vcf files. I highly appreciated any suggestions at this point.

sequencing alignment

Experimental verification is still done using sanger sequencing.

Hi!

I suggest you to use IGV in order to take a look at your files for variant identification or visualization.

Is there any suitable tutorial for using IGV through commmand line?

IGV is predominantly a viewer meant to be used interactively using the graphical interface. IGV includes a command line utility called igvtools (LINK).
