  • A problem of using Samtools to make VCF file

    Hi!

    I used the samtools commands and 1000 genome data(phase 3, low-coverage sequenced data) to generate the VCF file for both snp and indel, and below are the two command lines to get the vcf file for 5 people. The final "5genomes.var.flt.vcf" file has around 163432 snp and indel sites. However, when I used the same way to generate the vcf file for 100 people, the final vcf file includes only 1465 snp and indel, which is too few. I checked the last locus for both files, it looks like both of them processed the whole chromosome 20.

    Do you have any idea what's wrong with it?

    Thanks a lot. I look forward to your reply.

    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...
