GATK Tutorial - Picard is included in GATK #70

Open j23414 opened 1 year ago

The GATK Best Practices Workflow for DNA-Seq tutorial currently presents information that may require an update. It is important to note that Picard is included in GATK starting with GATK4.

Would it be possible to update this tutorial to reflect the change in the inclusion of Picard within GATK4? While it is understood that the tutorial may be intended to support GATK versions prior to 4.0, it is important to bring attention to this update for the sake of accuracy and clarity.

Optionally, it may be beneficial to link the tutorial to the relevant GATK Best Practices Workflows along with a note about any modifications necessary to adapt to non-human data (e.g. maize, plants).
