Phred scale is usually used for representing the base error probability in lograrithm format:
$Phred score = -10 log_10 error probability$
genotype quality is how certian the genotype calling algorithm is about the genotype called. It is usually displayed in 10*log(relative_score_of_genotype) format too.
