Trimmomatic: a flexible trimmer for Illumina sequence data

Anthony M Bolger et al. Bioinformatics..

Abstract

Motivation: Although many next-generation sequencing (NGS) read preprocessing tools already existed, we could not find any tool or combination of tools that met our requirements in terms of flexibility, correct handling of paired-end data and high performance. We have developed Trimmomatic as a more flexible and efficient preprocessing tool, which could correctly handle paired-end data.

Results: The value of NGS read preprocessing is demonstrated for both reference-based and reference-free tasks. Trimmomatic is shown to produce output that is at least competitive with, and in many cases superior to, that produced by other tools, in all scenarios tested.

Availability and implementation: Trimmomatic is licensed under GPL V3. It is cross-platform (Java 1.5+ required) and available at http://www.usadellab.org/cms/index.php?page=trimmomatic

Fig. 1.
Putative sequence alignments as tested in simple mode. The alignment process begins with a partial overlap at the 5′ end of the read (A), increasing to a full-length 5′ overlap (B), followed by full overlaps at all positions (C) and finishes with a partial overlap at the 3′ end of the read (D). Note that the upstream ‘adapter’ sequence is for illustration only and is not part of the read or the aligned region

Fig. 2.
Putative sequence alignments as tested in palindrome mode. The alignment process begins with the adapters completely overlapping the reads (A) testing for immediate ‘read-through’, then proceeds by checking for later overlap (B), including partial adapter read-through (C), finishing when the overlap indicates no read-through into the adapters (D)
