Run the variantCaller plugin

The variantCaller plugin identifies variants and adds a VCF file to the output that is available for completed sequencing runs. You can run the variantCaller plugin for sequencing results in Torrent Suite™ Software.

  • To see variant calls immediately after a sequencing run, configure the variantCaller plugin as part of the Planned Run.

  • You can also manually configure and run the variantCaller plugin after the sequencing run from a completed run report. You must run the plugin manually after the run to use a reference genome, target regions file, or hotspots file for one or more barcodes that are is specified in the Planned Run.

To get variantCaller plugin results as quickly as possible, set up the plugin to run automatically.
