VQSR filtering and dbSNP
Hi, For VQSR filtering, it's assumed that all calls made by HaplotypeCaller or MuTect2 are put into VQSR? Polymorphic sites should only be culled AFTER the vcf is annotated with VQSLOD scores, and a...
View ArticleHow can I force HaplotypeCaller to call a genotype -- want to avoid gt=./.
In a single sample vcf I have homozygous snp that is not assigned a genotype, the genotype is missing (gt=./.). What knobs can I turn on HaplotypeCaller (in GATK 3.8 or 4.1.2) to assign a genotype to...
