Low empirical scores for exome data while base quality score Recalibration in genome analysis tool kit (GATK).

06 March 2013 1 1K Report

I am analyzing exome sequencing data (~100x coverage). Pipeline includes BWA for alignment

I suggest posting this question on the GATK forum . They tend to be quite fast at replying to questions about their software.
