blt fastq-derep.sh(1) General Commands Manual blt fastq-derep.sh(1) SYNOPSIS blt fastq-derep.sh file.fastq|fq[.xz|.bz2|.gz] ARGUMENTS filename FASTQ file optionally compressed with xz, bzip2, or gzip DESCRIPTION blt fastq-derep.sh removes replicates from a fastq file using fastq2tsv to reformat to tab-separated data for easier sorting, then using Unix sort and an awk script to remove adjacent entries with the same sequence (column 2 of the TSV). Per latest benchmarks, seqkit rmdup --by-sequence and our own C version, blt fastq-derep, are about 3x as fast. However, blt fastq- derep.sh does not require the entire file in memory as it uses the Unix sort command, which automatically breaks large files into chunks for later merging.
