The scripts for the final pipeline are outlined below. The scripts are organised in 3 folders within a main folder.
Use this pipeline by running scripts in the pipeline/ folder in the numbered order. These scripts generate submission scripts for each step that can be submitted to the BlueCrystal p3 queue (i.e. qsub script.sh).
Inputs for each step should be submitted via the command line.
|
-----> pipeline
This contains all the scripts that generate submission scripts for BlueCrystal. Options can be specified in the command line.
|
-----> wrapper
Scripts called by pipeline scripts. Wrapper scripts for generating Queue request and specifying inputs from command line for the tools to be called.
|
-----> tools
Scripts of tools or functions used in each step. These are called by the wrapper script
00_fastqc_raw_museum.sh
00_fastqc_raw_modern.sh
parallel_fastqc_barkla.sh
We're removing all sequences that are shorter than 20bp and 3' quality trimmed to remove bases with PHRED quality score of < 20 with Cutadapt.
If you're running this on BlueCrystal, you'll have to install cutadapt locally first
module load languages/python-anaconda3-5.2.0
#install cutadapt in your home directory using the web instructions
pip3 install --user --upgrade cutadapt
#Check that this cutadapt works
~/.local/bin/cutadapt --help
##Check if this directory is in your PATH:
echo $PATH
##And add to PATH if it isn't yet
PATH="$PATH:~/.local/bin/"
##Now you can run cutadapt directly
cutadapt --help
01a_museum_cutadapt_filtering_trimming.sh
01a_modern_cutadapt_filtering_trimming.sh
01b_museum_trimmomatic_filtering_trimming.sh
01b_modern_trimmomatic_filtering_trimming.sh
01a_parallel_cutadapt_barkla.sh
Edit the generated script above to submit from your home directory:
1. Set all paths to your home directory if necessary.
2. Adjust the number of threads (PBS -t 1-xx) to equal the number of individuals to be analysed.
3. Check that any empty arguments have been removed from the cutadapt command
4. You might have to set the path to cutadapt to find your local version
It is more efficient to run this code in local directory before submitting to queue
#Index the reference genome if needed. Check whether the *fasta.fai* file exists in the SpeciesName/RefGenome/ folder in your local directory. If not, run the indexing code.
#index reference genome
module load apps/bwa-0.7.15
bwa index RefGenome/*fasta
#Create files with input names
ls 01a_museum_cutadapt_reads/*R1*fastq.gz >> R1.museum.names
sed -i s:01a_museum_cutadapt_reads/::g R1.museum.names
ls 01a_museum_cutadapt_reads/*R2*fastq.gz >> R2.museum.names
sed -i s:01a_museum_cutadapt_reads/::g R2.museum.names
#make output directories
mkdir 02a_museum_mapped
mkdir 02a_modern_mapped
#Check that you're pointing to the correct reference genome
#Check that the file separator makes sense. This will be different for the musuem and modern samples because the samples are named differently. On the line:
##sample_name=`echo ${NAME1} | awk -F "_L007" '{print $1}'`
#Change the -F "xxx" according to the file names.
#e.g the above works for files named as follows:
#HS-01-2016-26_L007_cutadapt_filtered_R2.fastq.gz
#we want only the first part of this name to carry through.
02_MapwithBWAmem.ARRAY_museum.sh
02_MapwithBWAmem.ARRAY_modern.sh
- Check that everything has mapped correctly by checking the file sizes. If the mapping is cut short (e.g. by exceeding the requested walltime) the partial bam file will look complete and can be indexed. But the bam file size will be small (~500kb) and empty when you look at it.
#To determine file size
du -sh *bam
#To see bam file
module load apps/bcftools-1.8
bcftools view file.bam | head
Check the output with samtools flagstat
module load apps/samtools-1.8
samtools flagstat file.bam
#make a flagstat log file for all of the samples
for i in $(ls *bam); do ls $i && samtools flagstat $i; done >> SpeciesName.flagstat.log
Index the bam files with this script
#!/bin/bash
#PBS -N bam.index
#PBS -l nodes=1:ppn=1 #nr of nodes and processors per node
#PBS -l mem=16gb #RAM
#PBS -l walltime=3:00:00 ##wall time.
#PBS -j oe #concatenates error and output files (with prefix job1)
#run job in working directory
cd $PBS_O_WORKDIR
module load apps/bcftools-1.8
for i in $(ls *bam); do bcftools index $i; done
After mapping the pipeline will split into 1) variant calling for final vcf with genotypes called for each individual, and 2) using likelihoods associated with variants for downstream analyses.
We use samtools mpileup to stack all reads for a locus from all individuals in the dataset. The likelihood of a variant at a particular site is determined based on the dataset-wide depth of two alleles. Next an individual genotype likelihood is calculated based on the depth of coverage within that individual. The final output is a vcf file with locus likelihood and depths for each individual's genotype.
pipeline
The variant calling step benefits greatly from the multi-threading and array capabilites on BlueCrystal. We break up the job by calling variants for each genomic region separately. This script will generate a single submission script for the entire dataset which will refer to a newly generated file called "regions" which contains the names of all the genomic regions (contig-xx, scaffold-xx). We have to split this script up because the maximum number of array jobs that we can run for a single script on BlueCrystal is 100.
1. First generate the submission script and the regions file. Remember to change the variables in this script for the species you're working on:
03a_variant_calling_bluecp3.sh
This generates a regions file where each "region" contains a max of 50 contigs/scaffolds and is max 4634570bp long.
The script needs to be modified depending on what files we're calling variants on. If calling independently for museum or modern, change the input file (-i) to point to the appropriate folder (e.g. 02a_modern_mapped)
When calling on museum and modern together, create a folder called mapped and move all the mapped reads and indexes to this folder. Change the input file to mapped:
mkdir mapped
mv 02a_modern_mapped/* mapped/
mv 02a_museum_mapped/* mapped/
Run the script above.
split -l 100 regions regions
This will generate several files called regionsaa, regionsab.. etc. The number will depend on how fragmented the reference genome is.
You'll need to replace 1) the script name 2) the job name in the PBS script, 3) the regions file referred to, 4) the job prefix.
Count the number of subset regions files:
ls regions* >> regions.names
#remove the top line "regions", as we only want to count the subset files
#you can use nano for this.
#then count the number of subset files
cat regions.names |wc -l
##remember to keep only the subset regions names in the regions.names file.
1. Create this many copies of the submission script
for i in {1..31}; do cp var_calling.20190211-161117.smsjob.sh "var_calling.20190211-161117.smsjob$i.sh";done
Where 31 should be replaced by number of regions files.
2-4 Replace the variables in each script
This script doesn't work..
for i in $(ls var_calling.20*21.*sh); do while read -r a; do sed -i "s/regions/${a}/" $i; done; done < regions.names
5 Correct number of threads requested
Check how many threads need to be run for the total script by looking at one of the scripts
grep "PBS -t" var_calling..sh
This should return something like
var_calling.20190603-155815.smsjob10.sh:#PBS -t 1-1800
The total number of threads is 1800, but we can only run 100 at a time. Hence the multiple submission scripts..
Modify PBS -t for all of the subset scripts.
for i in $(ls var_calling*sh); do sed -i 's:1-xxx:1-100:g' $i; done
Check this has worked correctly
grep "REGIONS=" var_calling*sh
grep regions var_calling*sh
grep "PBS -N"
grep "PBS -t"
Due to computational limits you can submit only ~6 jobs at a time.
qsub var_calling.smsjob1.sh
Check on the status of the run
qstat -u bluecrystal.username
Keep an eye on the queue and keep submitting more jobs until all the bcf files have been created.
We can pool about 200 bcffiles at a time, so we're splitting this job up into batches again and then have a final concatenation where we combine sets of 200 bcffiles.
First move all of the files into a tmp folder
mkdir tmp
mv job* tmp/
Make a file listing all of the bcf files. And split this into several files 500 lines long each.
ls tmp/*bcf >> bcflist
split -l 200 bcflist bcflist.batch
Rename these from bcflist.batchaa, bcflist.batchab to bcflist.batch1, bcflist.batch2, etc.
Make sure there is a submission script for each of these batches using 03b_summary_variant_calling_batch2.sh as a template. Remeber to check all the file paths.
Submit these to queue.
Check that they're all the expected size, and that all the bcf files were indexed. Once all the OUTF.b.batchxx.bcf files have been created properly, we can concatenate them all together into a final xx.raw.bcf file.
I've had a problem with these scripts timing out with no reported error. e.g. for G3 all longer scaffolds (>15k) were excluded from the concatenated bcfs.
Hence I've decreased the bcflist.batch length from 500 to 200 lines.
I used batches of 500 for triplet G and D.
Make a list of all the interim bcf files
ls OUTF.*bcf >> bcflist.ALL
Modify the previous script to point to the bcflist.ALL file instead of one of the batch files.
##### Problems Encountered
A1
empty bcf files were not deleted, thus the bcftools concat script terminated.
Empty bcfs (i.e. where no variants are called) should be deleted by the script and have been for all other species. Perhaps the run timed out? But I received no error.
Soln:
Delete all empty bcf files before running concat
Find empty files:
find . -size 0
Once we have the raw bcf file, we can look at the data and apply our filters.
This script independently filters the museum and modern samples by splitting the bcf file. We have to create a list of museum and modern sample names for each of the datasets. For the expanding triplets we could also create a third population file to represent the expanding populations. For now we're keeping both modern populations together.
Use the 03c_variants_filtering.sh script: Remember to change the variables for the species of interest:
-
Point to the raw bcf file
-
Create the 03_variants/museum_samples_list.dsv and 03_variants/modern_samples_list.dsv files
module load apps/bcftools-1.8
bcftools query -l xx.raw.bcf >> xx.samples_list.dsv
cat xx.samples_list.dsv
copy and paste the museum sample names into museum_samples_list.dsv using nano. Same with modern samples.
-
Change the sample numbers in the file in three places: total, modern, museum
-
Change the output file according to the month
e.g
OUTDIR="/newhome/bzzjrb/D2_Maniola_jurtina/03_variants/filtered_variant_files_June2019"
Once this has run, determine the number of variants discoverd for each of the populations separately:
module load apps/bcftools-1.8
module load apps/vcftools-0.1.12b
bcftools view -Ov modern..bcf >> modern...vcf
bcftools view -Ov museum..bcf >> museum...vcf
#Number of variants in modern only file after filtering
vcftools --vcf modern..vcf
#Variants in museum only file after filtering
vcftools --vcf museum.vcf
Find the intersection between these datasets. I.e. Keep only variants present in both files.
cd filtered_variant_files_xxx
module load apps/bcftools-1.8
bcftools isec -p dir museum_variants.bial.noindel.xxx.bcf modern_variants.bial.noindel.xxx.bcf
This command creates a four vcf files and a README.txt file in dir/
#The README file tells you what each of the vcf files is
cd dir
cat README.txt
module load apps/vcftools-0.1.12b
vcftools --vcf 0002.vcf
vcftools --vcf 0003.vcf
