29 .SH DESCRIPTION
30 The Variant Call Format (VCF) is a TAB-delimited format with each data line
31 consisting of the following fields:
32 .TS
33 nlbl.
34 1 CHROM CHROMosome name
35 2 POS the left-most POSition of the variant
36 3 ID unique variant IDentifier
37 4 REF the REFerence allele
38 5 ALT the ALTernate allele(s) (comma-separated)
39 6 QUAL variant/reference QUALity
40 7 FILTER FILTERs applied
41 8 INFO INFOrmation related to the variant (semicolon-separated)
42 9 FORMAT FORMAT of the genotype fields (optional; colon-separated)
43 10+ SAMPLE SAMPLE genotypes and per-sample information (optional)
44 .TE
45 .P
