About

SHAPEIT5 is a software package to estimate haplotypes in large genotype datasets (WGS and SNP array).

News

Version 5.1.0 is now available! See the CHANGELOG for details.

Description

SHAPEIT5 is composed of the following tools:

  • phase_common. Tool to phase common sites, typically SNP array data, or the first step of WES/WGS data phasing pipeline. This tool replaces SHAPEIT4.
  • ligate. Ligate multiple phased BCF/VCF files into a single whole chromosome file. Typically run to ligate multiple chunks of phased common variants.
  • phase_rare. Tool to phase rare variants onto a scaffold of common variants (output of phase_common / ligate).
  • switch. Program to compute switch error rate and genotyping error rate given simulated or trio data.
  • xcftools. Program to convert between the various file formats used by shapeit5 [BCF from/to XCF].
