Randomly subsample sequencing reads to a specified coverage

Example Usage

# sars-cov-2 example, paired-end illumina
rasusa -i SRR13957123_1.fastq.gz SRR13957123_2.fastq.gz \
       -n 40434 \          # downsample to specific number of reads per FASTQ file
       -s 1 \              # set seed 
       -O g \              # set output file compression format as gzip
       -o SRR13957123_downsampled_1.fastq.gz SRR13957123_downsampled_2.fastq.gz

# Salmonella enterica example, paired-end illumina
rasusa -i SRR10992628_1.fastq.gz SRR10992628_2.fastq.gz \
       --coverage 100 \    # use 100X coverage for downsampling
       --genome-size 5M \  # downsample to specific coverage based on genome size (5 million bases)
       -s 1 \              # set seed 
       -O g \              # set output file compression format as gzip
       -o SRR10992628_downsampled_1.fastq.gz SRR10992628_downsampled_2.fastq.gz
