Hi,

I'm sorry for my naive question (but this is my first analysis)...

Analysis: 19 PCR targetting exons (1 protein)

Fastq aligned by BWA (with genome reference hg19) (output SAM) > SAMtools (SAM-to-BAM) (output BAM) > Mpileup SNP and indel caller (output bcf) then

BCFtools, want to convert BCF format to VCF but output is tabular. Why?

I want visualization and exploring using IGV. How?

Thank you for your help

Hello,

The Mpileup tool creates two types of output.

The first is from "Basic" usage and is tabular that can be reassigned to "mpileup" datatype for downstream analysis. I suspect this is what you created. 

The second is from "Set advanced options: Advanced" where the option "Genotype Likelihood Computation:" is set to perform the calculation this way. This creates "bcf" output.

Please give this a try and see if it resolves the issue. Best, Jen, Galaxy team
