GBC: a parallel toolkit based on highly addressable byte-encoding blocks for extremely large-scale genotypes of species

Abstract Whole -genome sequencing projects of millions of subjects contain enormous genotypes, entailing a huge memory burden and time for computation. Here, we present GBC, a toolkit for rapidly compressing large-scale genotypes into highly addressable byte-encoding blocks under an optimized parall...
