Question on joint genotyping

Open ldorozco opened this issue 7 years ago • 2 comments

I as wondering if AsmVar does "joint genotyping" of multiple samples, analogous to what GATK does for SNPs?

Does AsmVar do break-point resolution? For example, if I have a population samples with structural variants in the same region, can AsmVar use that information to try to figure out the boundaries of the structural variant?

Thank you,

Luz

Hi @ldorozco , AsmVar does "joint genotyping" using Gaussian mixture model, different from the exact algorithm by GATK. AsmVar calls structural variant in break-point resolution since it calls variants from an de novo assembly. You must have the population samples assembled so as to figure out the boundaries of the structural variant.

Hi,

Thank you for your reply. I have one quick follow up. Does the genotyping option for AsmVar work only for variants called by AsmVar, or can it do joint genotyping given variants in a population sample?

Thank you for your time.
