Sequence ID Mapping

To map the distribution of samples across a dataset.

  1. Select Sequences in the navigation bar A.
  2. Open Extract and map sequence IDs from the tool list on wide windows, or select the tool name B at the top of the page to switch tools.
  3. Add the input files C with Browse files, Browse folder, or Open archive. SEGUI searches a folder and its subfolders for files that match the tool's input format. See file input for mobile options.
  4. Select Browse under Select output directory to choose the output folder. On phones and tablets, enter a Directory name instead; SEGUI saves it in the app's own folder.
  5. Add prefix for the output files.
  6. Turn on Map sequence ID (important).
  7. Select the run button D, labeled Extract ID, to start the task.

The app will generate two files:

  • Unique IDs: A list of unique IDs in your dataset (default name: id.txt).
  • ID Map: A csv file containing the distribution of your samples presented in TRUE/FALSE values across your alignments (default name: id_map.txt)

ID map file will look like as below:
