floria-strainer: strains out genomes from floria.

Introduction

Given the output of the strain haplotyping software floria[^1] , floria-strainer computes the allele frequency at each variable position of each haploset identified by floria to cluster them into the different strains composing the mixture, using a Gaussian Mixture Model.

Install

pip install floria-strainer

Quick start

Running floria-strainer on the provided test data

$ floria-strainer -b tests/data/test_short.bam tests/data/floria_out_dir
INFO - Writing the straining informations to floria_strained.strained.csv.
INFO - 2 strains were found: 0, 1
INFO - Writing the BAM file in tag mode to floria_strained.bam.

Visualizing the strain clustering method

• In this example, short-reads are aligned to a reference genome (fig 1). At each variable position, we can observe a 2 different alleles, which in the case of this haploid organism, corresponds to a mixture of 2 different strains.

• floria-strainer takes the output of floria, with reads having been assigned to a haploset (fig 2) based on the MEC criteria.

  The haplotyping process floria is conceptually similar to the one of de novo assembly of reads into contigs, where instead of contigs, read haplosets are the results of the flow (ie. least costly path) optimization through the different reads represented as a graph. More details in the floria article [^1].

• Based on the average allele frequency of each haploset, reads are clustered in the different strains. In this example (fig 3), there are two strains of minor and major allele frequency, which floria-strainer clustered in strain 0 and strain 1.

Reads that weren't assigned to any haploset by floria, or whose haploset do not cluster well enough are not assigned to any strain. They are considered to be shared by the different strains present in the alignment.

Fig 2: Reads are grouped and colored by the HP HaPloset tag as annotated by Floria.

Fig 3: Reads are grouped and colored by the ST STrain tag as annotated by floria-strainer.
