    Combining VCF from different callers

    Hi,

    I'm searching for a tool to combine VCF files from different caller.

    Since several paper now stated, what I've also measured, that the concordance of the different variant callers aren't too good, I would like to run the calling on multiple variant caller, and in the end combine the different calls. But I don't just want to combine them but instead get a VCF file containing all found variants an for each variant an entry in the INFO field how many of the caller found the mutation. In the end I want to filter on that criteria.

    Now my question is, is do you know of any tool out there which does something like this? So far I couldn't find any. What I found was BAYSIC which does something similar, but already performes some kind of analysis.



    Thanks in advance,
    Swindhard

    You might try free VariantInterpreter from Illumina

      Love this - good data definitely starts from good input, and poor input can only give relatively poor data. I particularly like the mention of Nanodrop/absorbance based methods for quantification. It's such a toss up if you'll get an accurate reading or what amounts to a randomly generated number, and a lot of library/sequencing related issues can be traced back to poor quant.

      Nine Things a Sample Prep Scientist Thinks About Before Sequencing

      I’m not a sequencing expert. I’m a purification scientist who uses NGS to evaluate workflows my group develops. With this perspective, we think about the sample first and the NGS workflow second. The sequencer is an exceptionally honest reporter, but it can only report on what you give it, so whether you get clean, interpretable data from an NGS workflow is largely determined before you begin.

      Here are nine questions we think about, in roughly the order they matter, before...
