          If it is installed on your computer, typing bcftools at the commandline prompt should give you something like this:

          Code:
          $ bcftools 
          
          Program: bcftools (Tools for data in the VCF/BCF formats)
          Version: 0.1.17-dev (r973:277)
          
          Usage:   bcftools <command> <arguments>
          
          Command: view      print, extract, convert and call SNPs from BCF
                   index     index BCF
                   cat       concatenate BCFs
                   ld        compute all-pair r^2
                   ldpair    compute r^2 between requested pairs
          Otherwise, have a look in the samtools directory, there should be a subdirectory called bcftools.

            Advanced Tools Transforming the Field of Cytogenomics
            by seqadmin


            At the intersection of cytogenetics and genomics lies the exciting field of cytogenomics. It focuses on studying chromosomes at a molecular scale, involving techniques that analyze either the whole genome or particular DNA sequences to examine variations in structure and behavior at the chromosomal or subchromosomal level. By integrating cytogenetic techniques with genomic analysis, researchers can effectively investigate chromosomal abnormalities related to diseases, particularly...

            How RNA-Seq is Transforming Cancer Studies
            by seqadmin



            Cancer research has been transformed through numerous molecular techniques, with RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) playing a crucial role in understanding the complexity of the disease. Maša Ivin, Ph.D., Scientific Writer at Lexogen, and Yvonne Goepel Ph.D., Product Manager at Lexogen, remarked that “The high-throughput nature of RNA-seq allows for rapid profiling and deep exploration of the transcriptome.” They emphasized its indispensable role in cancer research, aiding in biomarker...
