Hello everyone,

I am making a Ion Torrent pipeline by using tools from latest torrent suite. I am having hard time finding any sample data (with reference it was aligned against) using which I can do the tests (mapping, indexing and variant calling).

Are you familiar with any FTPs or something similar where I could find these?

Cheers!
There are two data sets from the NIST Genome in a Bottle project that would be good tests for Ion Torrent pipelines:

Ashkenazi trio: ftp://ftp-trace.ncbi.nih.gov/giab/ftp/data/AshkenazimTrio/

There is an ion_exome directory inside each of the trio members directories with Ion Torrent data.

NA12878 cell line: ftp://ftp-trace.ncbi.nih.gov/giab/ftp/data/NA12878/ion_exome/

These are particularly nice because there is plenty of reference material on these samples so that you can validate your results.
