Differences in MIRNA calling between your experiments could be due to any one of the following:

Hi Dr. Axtell,
I was previously using the SS 3.8.5 for our sRNA-seq data and adapter-trimmed reads as input. Recently, I tried using SS 4.0.1 and using the trimmed reads as input gave an error in bowtie based alignments. In my understanding, the adapter trimming software I was using was leaving behind reads less than 12-nt and was causing issues in bowtie-based alignments. I then made use of the autotrim feature of the newest version and used raw files (with adapters) as input and the error was resolved. In this run, I do see a difference in the total number of loci detected for a miRNA family (say miR390): 4 loci were detected in SS 3.8.5 but 3 in SS 4.0.1. Could you provide some insights on if adapter-trimming is possibly making a difference or any other factors that I should be aware of?
Thanks, Komal Attri
