Understanding glf format (Dindel)

[clarissaboschi]

Hi, I used the Dindel (Illumina data), but I had some problems.
In the last step I got a VCF file empty. I am wondering if the filtration criteria in the final step was very strict and I did not have any result (indels), or if there is some problem in my glf files.

There is no information about the meaning of each of the columns of the glf files (in the manual, paper or in the internet). I used the options for pooled samples (I have a pool of 10 individuals in 1 bam file).

For example (one of my glf file)

Questions
1) In my interpretation the quality score (phred score) is the "qual", is it correct? Because this is one of the criteria selection and in this column I got only "NA".
2)"num_indel" is the number of indels that I got? because I had only "NA" again..
3) "est_freq" is the allele frequency of the indel?
4) What is the "msq"?
5) "rpos" is the position in the reference sequence or in the realigned sequence?
6) What is "lpos"?
7) What is important to check in these columns?
8) What is the last column?

Someone could help me? Thanks
