HWE test

Test for Hardy Weinberg equilibrium based on genotype likelihoods. This class works both as a filter for all other classes and outputs the results in a file.

If you want to estimate inbreeding for individuals or include inbreeding information in your analysis try [HWE_and_Inbreeding_estimates].

	-HWE_pval	0.000000

Use as a filter

-HWE_pval [float]

p-value threshold. The value must be above 0 and a maximum of 1. Sites with a p-value below this threshold will be removed.

Output

This function will also print the results of the selected sites. If you choose -HWE_pval 1 then all sites (that pass other filters) will be outputted.
