Description

"Bowtie 2 is an ultrafast and memory-efficient tool for aligning sequencing reads to long reference sequences. It is particularly good at aligning reads of about 50 up to 100s or 1,000s of characters, and particularly good at aligning to relatively long (e.g. mammalian) genomes. Bowtie 2 indexes the genome with an FM Index to keep its memory footprint small: for the human genome, its memory footprint is typically around 3.2 GB. Bowtie 2 supports gapped, local, and paired-end alignment modes." More details are at Bowtie2

  <bt2-idx>  Index filename prefix (minus trailing .X.bt2).
             NOTE: Bowtie 1 and Bowtie 2 indexes are not compatible.
  <m1>       Files with #1 mates, paired with files in <m2>.
             Could be gzip'ed (extension: .gz) or bzip2'ed (extension: .bz2).
  <m2>       Files with #2 mates, paired with files in <m1>.
             Could be gzip'ed (extension: .gz) or bzip2'ed (extension: .bz2).
  <r>        Files with unpaired reads.
             Could be gzip'ed (extension: .gz) or bzip2'ed (extension: .bz2).
  <i>        Files with interleaved paired-end FASTQ/FASTA reads
             Could be gzip'ed (extension: .gz) or bzip2'ed (extension: .bz2).
  <bam>      Files are unaligned BAM sorted by read name.
  <sam>      File for SAM output (default: stdout)

  <m1>, <m2>, <r> can be comma-separated lists (no whitespace) and can be
  specified many times.  E.g. '-U file1.fq,file2.fq -U file3.fq'.

 BAM:
  --align-paired-reads
                     Bowtie2 will, by default, attempt to align unpaired BAM reads.
                     Use this option to align paired-end reads instead.
  --preserve-tags    Preserve tags from the original BAM record by
                     appending them to the end of the corresponding SAM output.

 Output:
  -t/--time          print wall-clock time taken by search phases
  --un <path>        write unpaired reads that didn't align to <path>
  --al <path>        write unpaired reads that aligned at least once to <path>
  --un-conc <path>   write pairs that didn't align concordantly to <path>
  --al-conc <path>   write pairs that aligned concordantly at least once to <path>
    (Note: for --un, --al, --un-conc, or --al-conc, add '-gz' to the option name, e.g.
    --un-gz <path>, to gzip compress output, or add '-bz2' to bzip2 compress output.)
  --quiet            print nothing to stderr except serious errors
  --met-file <path>  send metrics to file at <path> (off)
  --met-stderr       send metrics to stderr (off)

  --no-head          suppress header lines, i.e. lines starting with @
  --no-sq            suppress @SQ header lines
  --rg-id <text>     set read group id, reflected in @RG line and RG:Z: opt field
  --rg <text>        add <text> ("lab:value") to @RG line of SAM header.
                     Note: @RG line only printed when --rg-id is set.
  --omit-sec-seq     put '*' in SEQ and QUAL fields for secondary alignments.
  --sam-no-qname-trunc
                     Suppress standard behavior of truncating readname at first whitespace 
                     at the expense of generating non-standard SAM.
  --xeq              Use '='/'X', instead of 'M,' to specify matches/mismatches in SAM record.
  --soft-clipped-unmapped-tlen
                     Exclude soft-clipped bases when reporting TLEN
  --sam-append-comment
                     Append FASTA/FASTQ comment to SAM record

 Performance:
  -p/--threads <int> number of alignment threads to launch (1)
  --reorder          force SAM output order to match order of input reads
  --mm               use memory-mapped I/O for index; many 'bowtie's can share

 Other:
  --qc-filter        filter out reads that are bad according to QSEQ filter
  --seed <int>       seed for random number generator (0)
  --non-deterministic
                     seed rand. gen. arbitrarily instead of using read attributes
  --version          print version information and quit
  -h/--help          print this usage message
