[ensembl-dev] VCF question

[Dan Bolser]

Since you didn't get a reply:

I guess you can ask on the VCF tools mailing list:
http://sourceforge.net/mail/?group_id=279407

Or you could contact the data providers and complain for not
documenting their files inline as the format suggests:
http://www.1000genomes.org/wiki/Analysis/Variant%20Call%20Format/vcf-variant-call-format-version-40


Cheers,
Dan.

I apologize if this is not the correct forum for requesting this type of information.  At any rate, in the genotype field there are usually fields GT:DP:FT:GL:GQ:HQ in VCF 4.0, but I'm looking at some 1000 genomes data and there is a CB field with values in the individual genotype data SMB, MB, SM, SB, etc.  Could anyone inform me what the CB signifies and what the SMB letter codes mean?
