Release Lineage

Entered 2.12 · Apr 4, 2013

Current · Requires R 4.6

1.0 In 27 of 49 releases 3.23

Description

Data management of large-scale whole-genome sequencing variant calls with thousands of individuals: genotypic data (e.g., SNVs, indels and structural variation calls) and annotations in SeqArray GDS files are stored in an array-oriented and compressed manner, with efficient data access using the R programming language.

Changes in 1.52.1 (Bioconductor 3.23)

NEW FEATURES

  • seqParallel() can load cloud-related packages on worker processes before calling the user-defined function, with backward compatibility for older gdsfmt versions

UTILITIES

  • faster seqSetFilterPos() than v1.52.0
  • seqApply() supports "$ref", "$alt", "$chrom_pos", "$chrom_pos_allele" and "$variant_index" as variable names, consistent with seqGetData()
  • seqAddValue() supports LogicalList, IntegerList, NumericList and CharacterList from the IRanges package as variable-length annotation data input
  • seqMulticoreSetup() invisibly returns the newly created cluster object when a multicore cluster is set up
