By default, the SNV with DP<100 or labeled as "strict_strand|strand_bias|base_qual|map_qual|weak_evidence|slippage|position|HP" are filtered out
To change the criteria, update the following 2 variables in the "init.sh" file
export HP_FRULE="egrep -v 'strict_strand|strand_bias|base_qual|map_qual|weak_evidence|slippage|position|HP'" export HP_DP=100
Samples with multiple problems (failing haplocheck, multiple NUMTs, multiple heteroplasmies belonging to a different haplogroup, average coverage < HP_DP ...) are saved in "*.suspicious.{id,tab}" files
By default, suspicious samples are not removed; The users should check these files and maually remove the samples
Update the git: download scripts/{filterHiFi.sh,fixbcftoolsVcf.pl,bcftools.vcf} ; make the *.pl scripts executable
Run replacing the default(mutect2) snvcaller with bcftools , filter.sh with filterHiFi.sh, minimum coverage 250
