bcftools: bcftools (BCF calling tools) bcftools: bcftools: bcftools contains all the "vcf..." commands which previously lived in bcftools: the htslib repository (such as vcfcheck, vcfmerge, vcfisec, etc.) and bcftools: the samtools BCF calling from bcftools subdirectory of the previous bcftools: samtools. BCFtools are meant as a faster replacement for most of the bcftools: perl VCFtools commands. Bcftools comes with its own hstlib sources. bcftools: bcftools: Homepage: http://www.htslib.org bcftools: bcftools:
