Binary alignment (BAM), FASTA, variant call (BCF), and tabix file import


Bioconductor version: 3.13

This package provides an interface to the 'samtools', 'bcftools', and 'tabix' utilities for manipulating SAM (Sequence Alignment / Map), FASTA, binary variant call (BCF) and compressed indexed tab-delimited (tabix) files.
