Summary: Software to identify variants from pooled sequencing data

Description

Syzygy is a targeted sequencing post processing analysis tool that allows:

Rare variant SNP detection; Allele frequency estimation; Single-marker association test; Group-wise marker test association; Experimental QC summary (%dbSNP, Ts/Tv, Ns/S); Power to detect variant.

Documentation seems to indicate that Syzygy works for either indexed/barcoded or non-indexed (where individual-of-origin is not known for reads) pooled samples.
