How do you cite GATK haplotype?
How should I cite GATK in my own publications? Follow
- Van der Auwera & O’Connor (2020). Best reference for GATK.
- Poplin et al. (2017). Detailed description of HaplotypeCaller; best reference for germline joint calling.

What is the meaning of haplotype?
A haplotype is a group of genes within an organism that was inherited together from a single parent. The word “haplotype” is derived from the word “haploid,” which describes cells with only one set of chromosomes, and from the word “genotype,” which refers to the genetic makeup of an organism.
What is a haplotype caller?
HaplotypeCaller is used to call potential variant sites per sample and save results in GVCF format. With GVCF , it provides variant sites, and groups non-variant sites into blocks during the calling process based on genotype quality.
How many haplotypes does each person have?
A haplotype is defined as the combination of alleles for different polymorphisms that occur on the same chromosome (189), and for any given stretch of chromosomal DNA an individual will have two haplotypes, although at a population level there may be numerous haplotypes for any given stretch of chromosomal DNA.
How many human haplotypes are there?
So far about 2.4 million DNA sequence variants (single nucleotide polymorphisms or SNPs) have been discovered in the human genome, and millions more exist. These variants will be most useful for discovering genes related to health and disease if their organization along chromosomes, the haplotype structure, is known.
How do you count haplotypes?
The “direct count” method haplotype frequency is literally an exact frequency of a haplotype in your observed samples, obtained by dividing the count of occurrences over total observations. To think about the “population” haplotype frequency, you could then consider this within a statistical framework.
How can SNP haplotypes be determined?
As before, the most common haplotype form is first identified, and the similarity score between this haplotype form and each of the N chromosomes is calculated. The similarity score between two haplotypes is calculated as the proportion of SNPs where the alleles are identical across the two haplotypes.

Why do we call variant?
Variant calling is the process by which we identify variants from sequence data (Figure 11). Carry out whole genome or whole exome sequencing to create FASTQ files. Align the sequences to a reference genome, creating BAM or CRAM files.
