A fully automated pipeline for quantitative genotype calling from next generation sequencing data in autopolyploids by Guilherme S. Pereira, Antonio Augusto F. Garcia, Gabriel R. A. Margarido

“…However, its use is still limited in autopolyploid species because genotype calling software generally fails to properly distinguish heterozygous classes based on allele dosage. Results VCF2SM is a Python script that integrates sequencing depth information of polymorphisms in variant call format (VCF) files and SuperMASSA software for quantitative genotype calling. …”
