How To Install artfastqgenerator-examples on Kali Linux

In this tutorial we learn how to install artfastqgenerator-examples on Kali Linux. artfastqgenerator-examples is outputs artificial FASTQ files derived from a reference genome (examples)

Introduction

In this tutorial we learn how to install artfastqgenerator-examples on Kali Linux.

What is artfastqgenerator-examples

artfastqgenerator-examples is:

ArtificialFastqGenerator takes the reference genome (in FASTA format) as input and outputs artificial FASTQ files in the Sanger format. It can accept Phred base quality scores from existing FASTQ files, and use them to simulate sequencing errors. Since the artificial FASTQs are derived from the reference genome, the reference genome provides a gold-standard for calling variants (Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) and insertions and deletions (indels)). This enables evaluation of a Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) analysis pipeline which aligns reads to the reference genome and then calls the variants.

This package contains example data for artfastqgenerator.
