VCFtools is a program package designed for working with VCF files,
|
|
such as those generated by the 1000 Genomes Project. The aim of
|
|
VCFtools is to provide methods for working with VCF files: validating,
|
|
merging, comparing and calculate some basic population genetic
|
|
statistics.
|
|
|
|
VCFtools supports the VCF format v4.0. The vcf-validator, Perl API and
|
|
scripts now support also VCF format v4.2 and maintain backward
|
|
compatibility with older versions.
