Remove reference variants
The variant tracks produced by the variant detection tools of Biomedical Genomics Workbench include reference alleles complementing a non-reference allele (i.e. a heterozygous variant where only one allele is different from the reference). In some situations this information is not necessary and these reference allele variants can be filtered away.
To run the Remove reference variants, go to the toolbox:
Toolbox | Remove Variants (
) | Remove Reference Variants (
)
This opens a wizard where you can select a variant track (
) that should be filtered.
Click on the button labeled Next and Finish to create a new track without the reference variants.
