interpretartion of a vcf file

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?

calling genotype ont variant diploid

Is it typical to observe such a profile in the context of diploid organism ?

yes if there is more than one sample genotyped.

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