We are currently receiving a large number of applications for data submission, and the review process is taking longer than usual.We sincerely apologize for the delay and kindly ask for your understanding. When submitting an application, we would greatly appreciate it if you could allow sufficient time for the processing.

Following a change to our organizational structure effective April 1, 2026, this division has been renamed from the "Database Center for Life Science, Joint Support-Center for Data Science Research" to the "Database Division for Life Science (DBCLS), BioData Science Initiative (BSI), National Institute of Genetics (NIG)". Where the former name still appears in the guidelines, please read it as the new name.

Mapping
15-30x depth: BWA mem 0.7.12
3x depth: BWA mem 0.7.5a
Read deduplication
15-30x depth: Picard 2.10.6

Realignment and base quality recalibration
GATK v.3.2-2
Mapping quality
15-30x depth: Reads with MAPQ<20 were excluded at variant calling with GATK 3.7 HaplotypeCaller
3x depth: Reads with MAPQ<20 were excluded at variant calling with GotCloud
QC and filtering
We set exclusion criteria for genotypes sequenced at high depth (30x and 15x) as follows:
(1) DP < 5, (2) GQ < 20, or (3) DP > 60 and GQ < 95, and regarded these genotypes as missing.
Variants with call rates < 90% were excluded before variant quality score recalibration (VQSR).
After VQSR, variants located in low-complexity regions (LCR), as defined by mdust software, were excluded in the high depth (30x) dataset.
Finally, we used BEAGLE to impute missing genotypes.
