SnpFilters

Angsd has different snpfilters/snpstats.

• SB1 strand bias1
• SB2 strand bias2
• SB3 strand bias3
• deviation from HWE
• Wilcox rank sum test for qscore bias

The 3 strand bias filters are described here: http://www.biomedcentral.com/1471-2164/13/666

The deviation from HWE is described in http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23950147

The wilcox rank sum test is not described anywhere

These statistics will be calculated and reported and written into a file called PREFIX.snpStat.gz

./angsd -b list -domaf 1 -domajorminor 1 -gl 1 -snp_pval 1e-2  -P 5 -dosnpstat 1 

Please notice that -doSnpStat 1 does not filter out sites, but will only report stats. In the above command we therefore limit the analysis and output to the sites that are likely to be truly variable (-snp_pval 1e-2). But we calculate HWE deviations from all sites, but does not filter by it (-hwe_pval 1)
