I was wondering if some one can point me to a commercial or open source tool to call SNPs as well Copy number variation from Illumina's sequencing data. Thanks.

You might want to start by looking at the software page. Also, you might get more responses if you can refine your question. -
Hi,
You can try VarScan, it's a free software, which gives SNP, indel and CNV.
Good luck,

I have a related question: Can the copy number algorithm of VarScan still be used if my tumor and normal data are sequenced to varying depths? Lets says mean tumor depth is 2.5 times mean normal depth.. Is it still useful? If so, how should I modify the command line?Originally posted by Jane M View PostComment

You might be better off with specific tools for certain aspects of he jobs hat you areatte,ping to do rather than looking for a 'one tool for all jobs, approach, which as far as I'm concerned doesn't really exist!
For variant calling I would suggest looking at the Broad's V3 exome pipeline and working from there. In addition to the CNV suggestions from above, have a look at CONTRAComment

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...10-14-2026, 09:55 AM -
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...
