  • bcftools call: why is this a 1/1?

    I can't for the life of me figure out why bcftools call genotypes this position (and many, many others like it) as 1/1:

    Here's the input VCF line:

    Code:
    10	227179	.	C	T,<*>	0	.	DP=191;I16=91,87,7,2,6502,238474,333,12321,235,3775,420,25200,3675,85899,97,1569;QS=0.733,0.267,0;VDB=0.00520152;SGB=-0.662043;RPB=0.000875247;MQB=0.0198712;MQSB=0.892843;BQB=0.980427;MQ0F=0.0209424	PL:DP:ADF:ADR:AD	64,255,0,255,27,95:187:91,7,0:87,2,0:178,9,0
    and here's the output from bcftools call -m :

    Code:
    10	227179	.	C	T	34.7149	.	DP=191;VDB=0.00520152;SGB=-0.662043;RPB=0.000875247;MQB=0.0198712;MQSB=0.892843;BQB=0.980427;MQ0F=0.0209424;AC=2;AN=2;DP4=91,87,7,2;MQ=3	GT:PL:DP:ADF:ADR:AD	1/1:64,255,0:187:91,7:87,2:178,9
    Note that DP4=91,87,7,2 -- there are 178 REF reads and 9 ALT reads used to make the call. How on earth is that ALT homozygous "1/1"??

    I hugely appreciate any explanation of this call!

    Investigating the Gut Microbiome Through Diet and Spatial Biology
    by seqadmin




    The human gut contains trillions of microorganisms that impact digestion, immune functions, and overall health1. Despite major breakthroughs, we’re only beginning to understand the full extent of the microbiome’s influence on health and disease. Advances in next-generation sequencing and spatial biology have opened new windows into this complex environment, yet many questions remain. This article highlights two recent studies exploring how diet influences microbial...

    Quality Control Essentials for Next-Generation Sequencing Workflows
    by seqadmin




    Like all molecular biology applications, next-generation sequencing (NGS) workflows require diligent quality control (QC) measures to ensure accurate and reproducible results. Proper QC begins at nucleic acid extraction and continues all the way through to data analysis. This article outlines the key QC steps in an NGS workflow, along with the commonly used tools and techniques.

    Nucleic Acid Quality Control
    Preparing for NGS starts with isolating the...
