bio-read-qc-quality-filtering

separate

Filter reads by quality scores, length, and N content using Trimmomatic and fastp. Apply sliding window trimming, remove low-quality bases from read ends, and discard reads below thresholds. Use when reads have poor quality tails or require minimum quality for downstream analysis.

When to use

• Filter reads by quality scores
• Filter reads by length
• Filter reads by N content
• Apply sliding window trimming
• Remove low-quality bases from read ends
• Discard reads below thresholds
• Trim poly-G artifacts
• Combined adapter and quality trimming
