TY - JOUR AU - AB - Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has revolutionized plant and animal research in many ways including new methods of high throughput genotyping. Genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) has been demonstrated to be a robust and cost-effective genotyping method capable OPEN ACCESS of producing thousands to millions of SNPs across a wide range of species. Undoubtedly, Citation: Torkamaneh D, Laroche J, Belzile F (2016) the greatest barrier to its broader use is the challenge of data analysis. Herein we describe Genome-Wide SNP Calling from Genotyping by Sequencing (GBS) Data: A Comparison of Seven a comprehensive comparison of seven GBS bioinformatics pipelines developed to process Pipelines and Two Sequencing Technologies.

We compared five pipelines requiring a ONE 11(8): e0161333. doi:10.1371/journal. reference genome (TASSEL-GBS v1& v2, Stacks, IGST, and Fast-GBS) and two de novo pone.0161333 pipelines that do not require a reference genome (UNEAK and Stacks).
