I take it you're using GenomicsDBImport to combine the GVCFs? GenomicsDB doesn't support the allele-specific annotations just yet, but look for an update very soon: #3707 In the meantime, you can use CombineGVCFs in place of GenomicsDBImport if you need those allele-specific annotations.
Thank you for the quick response! Yes, I used GenomicsDBImport and I have seen the issue you mentioned but did not relate to mine.
First, the description stated "allele-specific" so I expected "Number=A" (or R). Second (and regardless of the support by GenomicsDB), I don't think the generated VCF follows specification if "Number=1" and the data gives multiple values. If you are aware of this and this is by design, I can close this issue.
I am aware and it is by design. The raw data for the allele-specific annotations can be lists of lists (e.g. AS_SB_table), but the VCF spec doesn't support that. As such, I chose to declare all the raw data to be strings and let the GATK code have the responsibility of parsing.
I see! Thanks so much for explaining it thoroughly!
Hi, I ran into the following error when combining gVCF files generated by the HaplotypeCaller:
Similar number info was found for several allele-specific annotations:
I assume, the correct annotation should be "Number=A".
The gVCF files were generated with HaplotypeCaller using
GATK version 4.0.0.0 (downloaded from GATK website)
