Comparative summary of GBS-SNP-CROP v.4.0 performance, based on a set of simulated data from GBS-Pacecar

Note: In total, 25 000 SNPs and 10 000 indels were simulated across a genomic space of 100 000 GBS fragments. A total of 60 002 165 single-end reads were simulated for a population of 25 individuals (average of 2.4 million reads per genotype), with a sequencing error rate of 1.1%. See Supplementary Table S1 for more details

a

UNEAK = TASSEL-UNEAK; GSC = GBS-SNP-CROP.

b

The number of genotypes used for mock reference (MR) assembly.

c

Computation time (minutes) required to run the full analysis on a Unix workstation with 16 GB RAM and a 2.6 GHz Dual Intel processor.

d

Number of variants called by a pipeline (Note: a total of 35 000 variants were simulated, consisting of 25 000 SNPs and 10 000 indels).

e

Percentage of called variants that could not be validated (false positives).

f

Percentage of true, simulated variants that were not detected by the pipeline.

g

Overall accuracy: 100 * [number of validated variants/(total number of simulated variants + number of non-validated variants)].

This has been corrected and the corrected table appears below.
