Example:

  • # Test if any of the samples A,B is different from all C,D,E vcf-contrast +A,B -C,D,E -m file.vcf.gz

  • # Same as above but printing only sites with novel variants and table output vcf-contrast -n +A,B -C,D,E -m file.vcf.gz | vcf-query -f '%CHROM %POS\t%INFO/NOVELTY\t%INFO/NOVELAL\t%INFO/NOVELGT[\t%SAMPLE %GTR %PL]\n'

  • # Similar to above but require minimum mapping quality of 20 vcf-annotate -f MinMQ=20 file.vcf.gz | vcf-contrast +A,B,C -D,E,F -f
