VisualizeCnvs

Generates plots of read depth across all samples. This is useful for visualizing large deletions and duplications (at least 5kbp).

This module is not a part of the core pipeline but may be used to investigate variants of interest.

Inputs​

info

All array inputs of batch data must match in order. In particular, the ordering of median_files and rd_files must be the same.

vcf_or_bed​

VCF or bed file containing variants to plot. All variants will be automatically subsetted to DEL and DUP types subject to the min_size constraint. VCF files must end in .vcf.gz and bed files must end in either .bed or .bed.gz. Bed files must contain columns: chrom,start,end,name,svtype,samples.

prefix​

Output prefix, such as cohort name. May be alphanumeric with underscores.

median_files​

Array of median coverage files for all batches in the input variants, generated in GatherBatchEvidence.

rd_files​

Array of RD evidence files for all batches in the input variants, generated in GatherBatchEvidence.

ped_file​

Family structures and sex assignments determined in EvidenceQC. See PED file format.

min_size​

Minimum size in bases of variants to plot.

flags​

Additional flags to pass to the RdTest plotting script.

warning

Due to a bug, the flags parameter must contain -s 999999999 in order to properly plot variants over 1 Mb.

Outputs​

rdtest_plots​

Tarball containing output plots.
