Dramatic change in GTs with smaller size DEL SV #530

Hi @fritzsedlazeck @lfpaulin @hermannromanek

We've been comparing results from new v.2.5.2 with older genotypes (v2.2 snf & then v 2.3.3 for joint call/merge with pct-seq=0) on a set of 108 ONT cattle sequences (~10x – 25X).

As expected, with v2.5.2 we found fewer large DEL with 1/1 genotypes & for several known recessive lethals genotypes were corrected to 0/1 as reported on a different issue thread.

However, with v2.5.2 we also found that 1/1 genotypes for smaller DEL (<5 kb) were also substantially changed from 1/1 to 0/1. For example, with DEL < 5kb we record that 15% of the GTs changed from 2.3.3 -> 2.5.2, with DEL 5-10Kb it's 19%. The number was <1% for INS.

We also test bam visualisation for one SV, the 1st and 5 individual was

Now called as 0/1:60:14:12:Sniffles2.DEL.20E2SA in 2.5.2 (was 1/1 in 2.3.3) Now called as 0/1:60:23:23:Sniffles2.DEL.1969SA in 2.5.2 (was 1/1 in 2.3.3)

At the moment we haven't looked at more than a few examples so far, but will do soon tomorrow

Hardy-Weinberg Equilibrium (HWE) analysis indicates that version 2.5.2 also produced a large increase in proportion of smaller DEL deviating from HWE, with an excess of heterozygous calls compared to 2.3.3.

Oh forgot to mention but we did compared the settings between 2.3.3 & 2.5.2 and notice that 2 option were disabled as default --mapq 20 --min-alignment-length 1000, we tried to add back these two and run the above test.
