    Problem with vcf file generated

    Hi,

    I have generated a vcf file from a bam file and reference sequence using the following command

    samtools faidx input.reference.fa
    samtools index sortedhg19.bam
    samtools mpileup -d 8000 -uf input.reference.fa my.sortedhg19.bam | bcftools view -bvcg -> my.raw.bcf
    bcftools view my.raw.bcf | perl vcfutils.pl varFilter -D8000 > my.flt.vcf

    But when i validated my VCF file using vcf-validator its giving the following error message

    The header tag 'reference' not present. (Not required but highly recommended.)
    The header tag 'contig' not present for CHROM=chr1. (Not required but highly recommended.)
    INFO field at chr1:10007 .. Could not validate the float [-nan]

    Can any one help me to fix the third error message .

    Can anyone know how to format the reference sequence.?

    I have generated VCF file using ref seq in order of chromosomes 1,11,12...19,2,21,..
    and also in order 1,2,3... . But in both cases this error exists

    Multiomic Liquid Biopsy: What DNA/RNA Panels Reveal That DNA Alone Can’t
    by SEQadmin2



    Tumors contain complex mixtures of cell populations that evolve in response to treatment and host-specific factors. Tissue biopsies provide only static snapshots of a tumor’s state. But what if we could follow that evolution over time using a minimally invasive technique?

    Liquid biopsies can detect tumor-derived material circulating in the bloodstream, providing a way to study treatment response, detect emerging resistance, and discover new biomarkers. Circulating

    New Genomics Technologies Take Aim at Long-Standing Limits
    by SEQadmin2


    Researchers using sequencing and genomics tools often have to make trade-offs. They can choose between speed or scale, short reads or long-range information, or targeted panels or a view of the whole transcriptome. New technologies that have been released this year are built to address those tough choices.

    We asked six companies the same four questions to learn about their latest products. The new technologies bring a lot to the table, including rethinking sequencing
