Hi Yuzhang,

I think you miscalculated the permutations.

Here VCF specs with the answer to your question:
http://samtools.github.io/hts-specs/VCFv4.3.pdf

Off the top of my head, answer is that PLs are (R is REF and A is ALT):
RR,RA1,RA2,RA3,A1A1,A1A2,A1A3,A2A3,A2A2,A3A3

I could be wrong about the order, but the answer is somewhere in the VCF specs.

Best wishes,
Tommy

Hi dear:
        Thanks for your attention.I got some problems when using samtools.
        The VCF file contain an entry:

Supercontig_1.1 104341 . G A,T,C 126 . 
DP=9;VDB=0.0030;AF1=1;AC1=2;DP4=0,0,4,4;MQ=60;FQ=-45 GT:PL:DP:GQ 
1/1:159,18,0,158,8,155,158,8,153,155:8:33

        There  are 3 ALTs and the PL contain 10 fields.I can not get the 
meaning of the 10 fields.Should they be 9?How to unstand the DP4 in this case?

        Thanks a lot ;
         Best Regards,
yuzhang
