Samtools is a suite of programs for interacting with high-throughput sequencing data. It consists of three separate repositories: | |||
Samtools: Reading/writing/editing/indexing/viewing SAM/BAM/CRAM format | |||
BCFtools: Reading/writing BCF2/VCF/gVCF files and calling/filtering/summarising SNP and short indel sequence variants | |||
HTSlib: A C library for reading/writing high-throughput sequencing data | |||
Samtools and BCFtools both use HTSlib internally, but these source packages contain their own copies of htslib so they can be built independently. | |||
Note: This page does not cover all features of SAMtools. Please refer to http://www.htslib.org/doc/samtools.html for the complete list of all subtools. | |||
