Indel calling
Indel Calling is a workflow for detecting insertions and deletions in human sequencing data. It is based on Platypus and includes additional quality control steps for robust variant detection and assessment. The workflow is designed for use with the Roddy workflow management system and is tailored to human reference genomes, including hg37/hg19 and, in some later versions, hg38, because genomic annotations play an important role in the analysis.
Key benefits
Detects insertions and deletions in human sequencing data
Based on the established Platypus variant calling approach
Includes extensive workflow-specific quality control additions
Designed for integration with the Roddy workflow management system
Supports human reference genome builds such as hg37/hg19 and selected hg38 versions
Applications
Insertion and deletion calling from human sequencing datasets
Variant detection in whole-genome or targeted sequencing workflows
Quality-controlled analysis of indel candidates
Integration of indel calling into Roddy-based NGS processing pipelines
Human genome analysis using annotation-aware variant workflows
Intended use
Indel Calling is intended for bioinformaticians, cancer genomics researchers, sequencing facilities, and genomics research groups working with human sequencing data. It is particularly suited for users who need a Roddy-compatible workflow for Platypus-based indel detection with integrated quality control and annotation-aware processing.
