A MapReduce approach for detecting genetic variants from high-throughput genome sequencing. Phase 1 is the mapping phase including sequence alignment. Phase 2 is the sorting phase including sorting alignments by mapped chromosomes. Phase 3 is the reduction phase including variant detection. chr1, chromosome one; chrM, chromosome M; SV, structural variation; SR, split-read analysis; RD, read-depth analysis; RP, read-pair mapping; JM, junction mapping; VCF, variant call format; GFF, general feature format.
Figure 2
Figure 2
Accuracy and sensitivity of variant detection. (a) Concordant and specific calls in SNP detection by GATK and SAMtools. Original calls, total number of calls from methods; specific calls, total number of method-specific calls. Validated calls, number of calls validated by the array. Ti/Tv, transition-to-transversion rate. (b) Overall sensitivity of SNP and structural variation or CNV detection over different sequencing coverage. X is the average number of reads representing a given nucleotide in a haploid human genome. 50% indicates that detected structural variation calls overlap ≥50% the array calls.
