Hello,

I'm currently analyzing a diploid organism and utilizing minipileup for variant calling ( https://github.com/lh3/minipileup ). Occasionally, I encounter a genotype represented as 3/0. Could you explain what this signifies? Is it typical to observe such a profile in this context?

see Genotype representation with 0, 1, 2 - what do they mean?

Could you explain what this signifies?

diploid HET genotype with the REF allele and an alternat allele (the 3rd in the ALT column)

For all samples for this variant, there is at least 3 possible ALT alternate alleles.

In my case , there is only one sample : here is an example of a some variants generated using minipileup :
