Freebayes
Introduction
Freebayes
is a Bayesian genetic variant detector designed to find small polymorphisms, specifically SNPs (single-nucleotide polymorphisms), indels (insertions and deletions), MNPs (multi-nucleotide polymorphisms), and complex events (composite insertion and substitution events) smaller than the length of a short-read sequencing alignment.
For more information, please check its website: https://biocontainers.pro/tools/freebayes and its home page on Github.
