**What it does**

This tool uses FreeBayes to call SNPS given a reference sequence and a BAM alignment file.

FreeBayes is a high-performance, flexible, and open-source Bayesian genetic variant detector. It operates on BAM alignment files, which are produced by most contemporary short-read aligners.

In addition to substantial performance improvements over its predecessors (PolyBayes, GigaBayes, and BamBayes), it expands the scope of SNP and small-indel variant calling to populations of individuals with heterogeneous copy number. FreeBayes is currently under active development. 

Go `here &lt;http://bioinformatics.bc.edu/marthlab/FreeBayes&gt;`_ for details on FreeBayes.

------

**Inputs**

FreeBayes accepts an input aligned BAM file.


**Outputs**

The output is in the VCF format.

-------

**Settings**::

  input and output:

   -b --bam FILE   Add FILE to the set of BAM files to be analyzed.
   -c --stdin      Read BAM input on stdin.
   -v --vcf FILE   Output VCF-format results to FILE.
   -f --fasta-reference FILE
                   Use FILE as the reference sequence for analysis.
                   An index file (FILE.fai) will be created if none exists.
                   If neither --targets nor --region are specified, FreeBayes
                   will analyze every position in this reference.
   -t --targets FILE
                   Limit analysis to targets listed in the BED-format FILE.
   -r --region &lt;chrom&gt;:&lt;start_position&gt;..&lt;end_position&gt;
                   Limit analysis to the specified region, 0-base coordinates,
                   end_position not included (same as BED format).
   -s --samples FILE
                   Limit analysis to samples listed (one per line) in the FILE.
                   By default FreeBayes will analyze all samples in its input
                   BAM files.
   --populations FILE
                   Each line of FILE should list a sample and a population which
                   it is part of.  The population-based bayesian inference model
                   will then be partitioned on the basis of the populations.
   -A --cnv-map FILE
                   Read a copy number map from the BED file FILE, which has
                   the format:
                      reference sequence, start, end, sample name, copy number
                   ... for each region in each sample which does not have the
                   default copy number as set by --ploidy.
   -L --trace FILE  Output an algorithmic trace to FILE.
   --failed-alleles FILE
                   Write a BED file of the analyzed positions which do not
                   pass --pvar to FILE.
   -@ --variant-input VCF
                   Use variants reported in VCF file as input to the algorithm.
                   A report will be generated for every record in the VCF file.
   -l --only-use-input-alleles
                   Only provide variant calls and genotype likelihoods for sites
                   and alleles which are provided in the VCF input, and provide
                   output in the VCF for all input alleles, not just those which
                   have support in the data.

  reporting:

   -P --pvar N     Report sites if the probability that there is a polymorphism
                   at the site is greater than N.  default: 0.0001
   -_ --show-reference-repeats
                   Calculate and show information about reference repeats in
                   the VCF output.

  population model:

   -T --theta N    The expected mutation rate or pairwise nucleotide diversity
                   among the population under analysis.  This serves as the
                   single parameter to the Ewens Sampling Formula prior model
                   default: 0.001
   -p --ploidy N   Sets the default ploidy for the analysis to N.  default: 2
   -J --pooled     Assume that samples result from pooled sequencing.
                   When using this flag, set --ploidy to the number of
                   alleles in each sample.

  reference allele:

   -Z --use-reference-allele
                   This flag includes the reference allele in the analysis as
                   if it is another sample from the same population.
   -H --diploid-reference
                   If using the reference sequence as a sample (-Z),
                   treat it as diploid.  default: false (reference is haploid)
   --reference-quality MQ,BQ

                   supporting quality scores.  (Set to 0 to use all; default: all)
   -E --max-complex-gap N
                   Allow complex alleles with contiguous embedded matches of up
                   to this length.

                   genotype likelihood for the sample.  default: ~unbounded
   -j --use-mapping-quality
                   Use mapping quality of alleles when calculating data likelihoods.

                   observations by this factor during data likelihood
                   calculations.  default: 0.9
   -= --no-marginals
                   Do not calculate the marginal probability of genotypes.  Saves
                   time and improves scaling performance in large populations.
