Hello Ateeq, It looks like you are working with a bacterial genome. There has been some limited discussion on the Galaxy mailing list about using RNA-seq tools with circular genomes, but the best resources are probably the tool documentation itself (e.g. http://cufflinks.cbcb.umd.edu/manual.html#gene_exp_diff & http://cufflinks.cbcb.umd.edu/howitworks.html#hdif), the tool author's Q/A email tophat.cufflinks@gmail.com, and seqanswers.com. From a quick check, it seems that the 'not significant' result is due to the value of "Test status" being "NOTEST". Definition in documentation link above: NOTEST (not enough alignments for testing) Hopefully this helps, Best, Jen Galaxy team On 3/19/12 11:03 AM, Ateequr Rehman wrote:
Dear galaxy user After running cuffdiff on my two samples (SAM files from bowtie) i got a list with p and q values, and löast colum is saying abou significance with P value, it seems like the comparison should be significant, but in Q value is 1, and last coumn is saying not significant
any one have an idea, how to interpret it , should we take any comparsion with less than 0.05 p value as significant or not
tables in excel looks like it
Nay help is welcome
best Ateeq
