Dramatic decrease in the number of variants discovered after applying --ploidy
Hi! I did two haplotypecaller GVCF runs on DNA-Seq data, one with default ploidy 2 and one with ploidy 28 (my library is a pool of 14 diploid animal samples). I noticed there is a drastic decrease in...

Hello, I recently compared results from GATK best practices (bwa, Picard, HaplotypeCaller, GenotypeGVCFs) with a snp array set (a high confident known variant detection method) for 6 samples (data from...
View ArticleWhat is a GVCF and how is it different from a 'regular' VCF?
Overview GVCF stands for Genomic VCF. A GVCF is a kind of VCF, so the basic format specification is the same as for a regular VCF (see the spec documentation here), but a Genomic VCF contains extra...
