I don't quite get what the -q option does with a value if 15, is there a more descriptive explanation of the option?

-q INT Parameter for read trimming. BWA trims a read down to argmax_x{\sum_{i=x+1}^l(INT-q_i)} if q_l<INT where l is the original read length. [0]

Thanks!

Thanks for the helpful links! I must have been using wrong keywords to search

An answer on a different site should not be considered as a duplicated post. And in general if someone has an answer I would recommend to have that added as an answer rather than a comment.

I really wanted to extend that sentence to "Duplicate Entries on other sites", but ignored & an added contribution as a link to another helpful post, but you would you consider this comment or an answer.

I would say it is an answer - linking to the answer to a question is an answer. The next version of Biostar will have a new feature called 'reparent' that will allow moderators to promote a comment into an answer.
