| The Variant Call Format (VCF) is a flexible file format specification that allows us to represent many different variant types ranging from SNPs, Indels to Copy Number Variations. However, variant representation in VCF is non-unique for Indels, a failure to recognize this will ofttimes result in inaccurate analyses. | | The Variant Call Format (VCF) is a flexible file format specification that allows us to represent many different variant types ranging from SNPs, Indels to Copy Number Variations.
