Nucleotide composition of each position was also assessed using REDItools (https://github.com/tflati/reditools2.0) on each sample, discarding all the positions having coverage lower than 20 and base quality lower than 30 to avoid errors due to low sampling. Next, variants called by each tool in the untreated controls were filtered out in the treated samples to enrich for private mutations. This procedure retained only variants in high-quality genomic positions in both treated and untreated sample, for which the untreated sample showed ≥ 99% of reads supporting the reference, non-mutant, base at the position of the mutation (based on REDItools). The final lists of variants for each sample were made by those called by all tools and passing the filtering procedure (intersection).
