  • Merging vcf files

    I am noticing a problem when merging two VCF file if the SNP is multiallelic, below is an example of how a multiallelic SNP should look like in a VCF file for the merged samples. You can see that the AF= Allele frequency below takes two values (0.333, 0.667) which corresponds to the frequency of Alternative allele “G” and the “T” .

    1110696 rs6040355 A G,T 67 PASS NS=2;DP=10;AF=0.333,0.667;AA=T;DB GT:GQP:HQ 1|2:21:6:23,27 2|1:2:0:18,2 2/2:35:4

    The problem that I am having is when merging two samples, I do not get AF values for each alternative allele. I tried to do this using VCF tools, below is my command.

    perl vcf-merge file1.vcf.gz file2.vcf.gz >merged_files.vcf

    Does anyone know how to solve this problem or if there are other tools to merge .vcf files that takes care of this problem?

    Thanks,

    Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
    by seqadmin


    Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
