John,

It is the number of reads that had this exact insertion, as you guessed. Let us know if you have further questions.

Regards,

Hi,
I was running an indel analysis on galaxy and I got a file as output that has rows that look like this:

fly2      9829    9830    I       ATACTCCAA       79

Can anybody tell me what the last column (79) means? There is obviously an insertion at 9829 with those nucleotides, but I’m not sure what the 79 refers to even after reading the linked documentation. Is it the number of reads that had this? A quality score?
