Hi Sandeep,
the GeneCounts output is equivalent to that of htseq-count, and so it has slightly different meaning. The reads with only one aligned mate are not counted and added into N_unmapped. Reads that mapped to multiple loci are also added to N_unmapped. Only uniquely mapped reads are counted towards the genes.
Cheers Alex
Dear Alex,
I am posting the info from log files I got post running mapping with STAR. I am surprised by the difference in number of reads reported between ReadsPerGene.out.tab file and Log.final.out file.
Can I please know where does the number of reads unmapped (N_unmapped) in ReadsPerGene.out.tab file come from? It doesn't match with the number of reads unmapped in Log.final.out file.
ReadsPerGene.out.tab
N_unmapped 11563250 11563250 11563250 N_multimapping 3381699 3381699 3381699 N_noFeature 14966 16645 15915 N_ambiguous 326 131 152 Soltu.DM.S001600.1 0 0 0 Soltu.DM.S001610.1 0 0 0 Soltu.DM.S000630.1 0 0 0 Soltu.DM.S000650.1 0 0 0
Log.final.out
