Sort read coverage tracks by variant

The read coverage tracks reports read counts, molecular counts, insertions and deletions. In an analyses that were run with Ion AmpliSeq™ HD or TagSeq analysis workflows, you can sort the coverage tracks by variants. This type of sort, which groups the visualized variants together as the top of the coverage chart, is useful if the read coverage is high.

  1. In the Analyses tab, click Overview.

    The Analyses table lists all the available analyses.

  2. Click a link for an analysis to open the Analysis Results screen.
  3. Click the link for a locus that includes variants that you want to visualize.
  4. In the coverage track, place the cursor at the position of the variant, then right-click and select Sort by Base.

The read coverage track is reordered to show the families and reads that contain variants at the top.
