BactVar

Python

Map reads with BWA from paired short read files to a reference genome, followed by variant calling with GATK HaplotypeCaller and gVCF best practices. A SNP-only whole-reference alignment is generated and variant effects are annotated by SnpEff.

Usage

Run in a directory of fastq (R1 and R2) files, that have already been trimmed. BactVar will assume they have the TrimGalore! suffix of _1_val_1.fq.gz/_2_val_2.fq.gz. If they don't then provide an alternative with --fastq

BactVar <reference.fasta>

Core genome extraction, phylogenetics and correction for recombination

Combine whole reference SNP alignments, extract the core genome with BactCore and generated a phylogeny with IQTREE and ClonalFrameML

cat */*aln > wga.aln 
BactCore wga.aln > core_alignment.fasta
iqtree -s core_alignment.fasta -B 1000
ClonalFrameML core_alignment.fasta.treefile core_alignment.fasta bactvarproject

Dependencies

BactVar is written in python3 and requires the following python packages:

  • Biopython

BactVar has been built around bwa, GATK, snpEff etc. The most up to date versions (mid 2023) have been used:

  • prokka
  • Java ≥v17
  • GATK (tested on v4.4.0)
  • bwa (tested on 0.7.13-r1126)
  • snpEff (tested on v5.1f)
  • samtools (tested on v1.9)

It won't work with much earlier versions of GATK for example, so I reccomend install these versions or above.

For local installations of java I reccommend: https://pypi.org/project/install-jdk/
