Strandness option disappeared in Bowtie2

Heyya,

I ran Bowtie2 today and I couldn’t find the strand-specificity option. Is there a new update? I doubt I missed it, it was under “Paired-end option” as I remember. I don’t know what to choose for featureCounts now :frowning:

Cheers.

Hi @Sammy,
I have checked the previous versions of Bowtie2 but I couldn’t find any significant change regarding the strand-specificity option. I suggest you to use HISAT2, since it provides this option.

Regards
