Name: Bcftools
URL: https://samtools.github.io/bcftools/
Description: >
    BCFtools is a set of utilities that manipulate variant calls in the
    Variant Call Format (VCF) and its binary counterpart BCF.
---

The Bcftools module parses results generated by
[Bcftools](https://samtools.github.io/bcftools/),
a suite of programs for interacting with variant call data.

Supported commands: `stats`

#### Collapse complementary substitutions
In non-strand-specific data, reporting the total numbers of occurences for both changes 
in a comlementary pair - like `A>C` and `T>G` - might not bring any additional information. 
To collapse such statistics in the substitutions plot, you can add the following section into 
[your configuration](http://multiqc.info/docs/#configuring-multiqc):
```yaml
bcftools:
    collapse_complementary_changes: true
```
MultiQC will sum up all complementary changes and show only `A>*` and `C>*` substitutions 
in the resulting plot.
