VCFtools

Overview

VCFtools is a program package designed for working with VCF files, such as those generated by the 1000 Genomes Project. The aim of VCFtools is to provide methods for working with VCF files: validating, merging, comparing and calculate some basic population genetic statistics.

Version 0.1.14 is installed on the iCSF. It was compiled with gcc 4.9.0. There is a version 0.1.14 which uses zlib 1.2.8 which may give better performance.

Version 0.1.11 is also installed on the iCSF. It was compiled with gcc 4.7.0.

Restrictions on use

The software is open source. All iCSF users may access it.
