27 | | * Map reads to reference after QC'ing |
28 | | * Mark duplicates: sequencing errors can propagate due to amplification (use Picard Tools) |
29 | | * Indel-based realignment: misalignment by aligner is likely to occur near indels (use RealignerTargetCreator and IndelRealigner) |
30 | | * Base quality recalibration: base quality score will be made more accurate (use BaseRecalibrator and PrintReads) |
31 | | * Run UnifiedGenotyper to call variants |
