.SH DESCRIPTION
The Variant Call Format (VCF) is a TAB-delimited format with each data line
consisting of the following fields:
.TS
nlbl.
1 CHROM CHROMosome name
2 POS the left-most POSition of the variant
3 ID unique variant IDentifier
4 REF the REFerence allele
5 ALT the ALTernate allele(s) (comma-separated)
6 QUAL variant/reference QUALity
7 FILTER FILTERs applied
8 INFO INFOrmation related to the variant (semicolon-separated)
9 FORMAT FORMAT of the genotype fields (optional; colon-separated)
10+ SAMPLE SAMPLE genotypes and per-sample information (optional)
.TE
.P
The following table gives the \fBINFO\fP tags used by samtools and bcftools.
.TP
.B AF1
