Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) in COVID-19: A Tool for
SARS-CoV-2 Diagnosis, Monitoring New Strains and
Phylodynamic Modeling in Molecular Epidemiology这个文章里面对武汉新冠当时的情况做了一个介绍 5个样本中国疾控处理、4个样本华大处理的
华大用bwa和hg19人的基因组对比 去除了宿主 然后和NCBI的冠状病毒(具体是哪个序列还不知道)做了对齐 然后使用SPAdes做了一个一致性序列
中国疾控用的是 CLCBio (就是我研究的竞品 CLC workbench)software version 11.0.1 was used for de novo assembly, variant calling, and alignment
有了这些组装的结果之后,就可以做进化分析( phylogenetic analysis)该文章对covid-19 NGS实验和生信做了综述 里面引用了一些文章还是有价值的:

Description
BAM
Compressed (binary) format of a SAM file intended for faster random access (search) of aligned and unaligned sequences and its related metadata. Compression enables smaller file size and storage efficiency which makes it popular over the SAM format. This is a default output of many alignment and post-alignment softwares used in bioinformatics pipeline and commonly used as an input by many variant callers*.
FASTQ
It is a de facto, human readable, file format that stores nucleotide sequences and corresponding quality (PHRED) scores for each nucleotide as an ASCII encoded character.4 This is commonly used for storing unaligned short sequence reads after the steps of base calling and is a typical starting point for NGS bioinformatics pipeline.
PHRED Score
It is a per base (nucleotide) quality score that is defined as an estimated probability for a called base to be incorrect (erroneous call). Mathematically, it is expressed as4where Q is Phred quality score, Pe is the probability for an erroneous base call. The Pe is typically generated by the base calling software which is sequence instrument specific. Therefore, Q values in isolation cannot be used to compare sequence quality across different sequencing platforms.
SAM
Stands for Sequence Alignment/Map format. It is a human readable (text file) file format specification for storing information on aligned sequence. This is a default output of many alignment softwares used in bioinformatics pipeline. Given the large file size and slower random access, BAM format is preferred for routine bioinformatics data processing. This format is helpful for technical troubleshooting when manual review of the stored information is necessary*.
Variant - horizontally complex
When two or more sequence alterations are present on the same read in close proximity such that they may represent a single complex variant. These variants are frequently represented as deletion-insertions and may result in ambiguous sequence description or HGVS nomenclature.
Variant - Left-aligned
If there are multiple potential VCF entries of the same allele length that represent the same variant, then left-alignment refers to the VCF entry with the smallest base position. The base position is typically represented in genomic coordinate for a given primary assembly (eg, GRCh38) and represents the most 5’ position.5
Variant - Normalized
A normalized variant must be parsimonious as well as left-aligned.5
Variant - Parsimony
If there are more than one way to represent the same variant in a VCF file, parsimony refers to the representation with the shortest possible allele length5 (positive and non-zero length).
Variant - vertically complex
A vertically complex variant occurs when three or more alleles are represented by different sequence reads, typically with or uncommonly without a reference (normal) allele, at the same genomic coordinate or set of coordinates.
VCF
Variant Call Format is a versioned, text-file (human readable) specification for storing sequence variant calls. The file contains meta-information containing various details of the variant calling process and definition of headers and format tags, a header line and data lines. Each data line represents a sequence variant defined using a combination of chromosome, position, reference allele, and alternate allele†. -

2020.08.23.20178236v1.full.sars.kraken2.terra.pdf这个文章里面提到 使用kraken2检测其他病毒 主要用于排除新冠和其他病毒的交叉感染
We used Kraken2 (46) to identify other viral taxa present in NP swab samples from COVID positive patients, excluding those removed by filters i and ii described above. To do so, we ran the classify_single workflow on all reads from all samples (with kraken2_db_tgz=”gs://pathogen-public-dbs/v1/kraken2-broad-20200505.tar.zst”, krona_taxonomy_db_kraken2_tgz=”gs://pathogen-public-dbs/v1/krona.taxonomy-20200505.tab. zst”, ncbi_taxdump_tgz=”gs://pathogen-public-dbs/v1/taxdump-20200505.tar.gz”, trim_clip_db=”gs://pathogen-public-dbs/v0/contaminants.clip_db.fasta”, spikein_db=”gs://pathogen-public-dbs/v0/ERCC_96_nopolyA.fasta”).
