Tags: salmonella serovar cgmlst typing sistr bactopia-tool

Serovar prediction of Salmonella enterica from assemblies.

This Bactopia Tool uses Salmonella In Silico Typing Resource, or SISTR, for serovar prediction of Salmonella enterica assemblies using cgMLST typing and molecular serovar prediction.

Usage

Bactopia CLI:

bactopia --wf sistr \
--bactopia /path/to/your/bactopia/results

Nextflow:

nextflow run bactopia/bactopia/workflows/bactopia-tools/sistr/main.nf \
--bactopia /path/to/your/bactopia/results

Per-Sample Results

FileDescription
*.csvSISTR analysis results in CSV format

Merged Results

FileDescription
sistr.tsvMerged TSV file containing SISTR results from all samples

Audit Trail

Below are files that can assist you in understanding which parameters and program versions were used.

Logs

Each process that is executed will have a folder named logs. In this folder are helpful files for you to review if the need ever arises.

ExtensionDescription
.beginAn empty file used to designate the process started
.errContains STDERR outputs from the process
.logContains both STDERR and STDOUT outputs from the process
.outContains STDOUT outputs from the process
.runThe script Nextflow uses to stage/unstage files and queue processes based on given profile
.shThe script executed by bash for the process
.traceThe Nextflow trace report for the process
versions.ymlA YAML formatted file with program versions

Nextflow Reports

These Nextflow reports provide great a great summary of your run. These can be used to optimize resource usage and estimate expected costs if using cloud platforms.

FilenameDescription
sistr-dag.dotThe Nextflow DAG visualization
sistr-report.htmlThe Nextflow Execution Report
sistr-timeline.htmlThe Nextflow Timeline Report
sistr-trace.txtThe Nextflow Trace report
