Percentage of Bases Covered By Reads Enhancement #67

Open DarioS opened 7 years ago

It'd be great if the software could output the percentage of transcript bases covered by the assigned RNA-seq reads. For some genes, these values are not close to 100%, which suggests that the transcript isoforms in the database are incomplete for that gene and that the expected counts should be carefully considered. Having such a number automatically output by RSEM would be convenient rather than having to read and process the short reads yet another time.
