Mean insert size
- ID: mean_insert_size
- Description: The mean insert size of short paired-end sequencing high quality reads, primary alignments, mapped on GRCh38 assembly. Duplicated reads and clipped bases are included. No minimum mapping quality is imposed.
- Implementation details: In the NPM-sample-QC reference implementation it is computed using samtools stats, reporting the insert_size_average field. Duplicated reads are included. No mapping qualiy is applied.
- Type: Float 1 decimal precision (eg. 430.1)
- Functionally equivalent implementations:
- NPM sample qc
- ICGC-ARGO dnaalnqc
- DRAGEN v3.7.6. Extracted from [sample-id].mapping_metrics.csv, key name:
