Does the bootstrap in kallisto affect the BAM files?

Question

[bioinfo]

Hello,

I was given the abundance files from kallisto for a project. However, I also needed the genomebam files which where given to me later. I noticed that for the bam files the kallisto command was run differently. The first files were run without -b but when the bam files were generated they were run with -b 100. Would the bootstrap option change anything on the BAM files? I just want to visualize them on IGV to check if my knock out has worked. I am not sure if I can use the BAM files I was provided with or if I should ask for them again.

Thank you

No, bootstraps have no effect on BAM files.
