    Problems with outputting GT information using samtools

    Hi everyone,

    I'm trying to calculate heterozigosity for one individual genome using vcftools. For that, I need to have GT information in the FORMAT field for all sites. However, using the command "samtools mpileup -C50 -uDgf ref.fa output.sorted.bam | bcftools view -cg - > output.vcf" in samtools, only adds the GT information for variable sites relative to the reference, which is apparently a problem for vcftools. Anyone has any idea how to tell samtools to include the GT field for all sites? I thought the -g option in both mpilup and bcfview would take care of it, but apparently not.

    Thanks!

    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
