A SPECTRUM OF FREE SOFTWARE TOOLS FOR PROCESSING THE VCF VARIANT CALL FORMAT: VCFLIB, BIO-VCF, CYVCF2, HTS-NIM AND SLIVAR.

A spectrum of free software tools for processing the VCF variant call format: vcflib, bio-vcf, cyvcf2, hts-nim and slivar.

Since its introduction in 2011 the variant call format (VCF) has been widely adopted for processing DNA and RNA variants in practically all population studies-as well as in somatic and germline mutation studies.The VCF format can represent single nucleotide variants, multi-nucleotide variants, insertions and deletions, and simple structural variant
