genome / pindel

Pindel can detect breakpoints of large deletions, medium sized insertions, inversions, tandem duplications and other structural variants at single-based resolution from next-gen sequence data. It uses a pattern growth approach to identify the breakpoints of these variants from paired-end short reads.

strategies used by pindel to detect variants

Jordi-V opened this issue · comments

Dear all,

I only want to know which signals used Pindel to detect variants. The main signal is split read, but now I found a paper where they mention the usability of Discordant Reads too... So I will appreciate inform which strategies use Pindel in order to detect variants.

Thanks for your time

Jordi
