 By default, the pipeline uses [STAR](https://github.com/alexdobin/STAR) (i.e. `--aligner star_salmon`) to map the raw FastQ reads to the reference genome, project the alignments onto the transcriptome and to perform the downstream BAM-level quantification with [Salmon](https://salmon.readthedocs.io/en/latest/salmon.html). STAR is fast but requires a lot of memory to run, typically around 38GB for the Human GRCh37 reference genome. Since the [RSEM](https://github.com/deweylab/RSEM) (i.e. `--aligner star_rsem`) workflow in the pipeline also uses STAR you should use the [HISAT2](https://ccb.jhu.edu/software/hisat2/index.shtml) aligner (i.e. `--aligner hisat2`) if you have memory limitations.
 
-You also have the option to pseudoalign and quantify your data directly with [Salmon](https://salmon.readthedocs.io/en/latest/salmon.html) or [Kallisto](https://pachterlab.github.io/kallisto/) by specifying `salmon` or `kallisto` to the `--pseudo_aligner` parameter. The selected pseudoaligner will then be run in addition to the standard alignment workflow defined by `--aligner`, mainly because it allows you to obtain QC metrics with respect to the genomic alignments. However, you can provide the `--skip_alignment` parameter if you would like to run Salmon or Kallisto in isolation. By default, the pipeline will use the genome fasta and gtf file to generate the transcripts fasta file, and then to build the Salmon index. You can override these parameters using the `--transcript_fasta` and `--salmon_index` parameters, respectively.

 The library preparation protocol (library type) used by Salmon quantification is inferred by the pipeline based on the information provided in the samplesheet, however, you can override it using the `--salmon_quant_libtype` parameter. You can find the available options in the [Salmon documentation](https://salmon.readthedocs.io/en/latest/library_type.html). Similarly, strandedness is taken from the sample sheet or calculated automatically, and passed to Kallisto on a per-library basis, but you can apply a global override by setting the Kallisto strandedness parameters in `--extra_kallisto_quant_args` like `--extra_kallisto_quant_args '--fr-stranded'` see the [Kallisto documentation](https://pachterlab.github.io/kallisto/manual).
