[Vcftools-help] dividing SNP variants from indel variants in the same VCF file

[Mao J. <jia...@gm...>]

Dear VCFTools-helpers,

Usually we grouped the genomic variants into different types, like
SNP, insertion, deletion, Transposable element.

I would like to get the some primary statistics, like frequency or
counts, for different types of such genomic variants. I want to know
if there are tools/strategies to divide SNP variants from indel
variants in the same VCF file (only snp and indel there), and keep
them into different vcf files. I do my study depending on VCF and
VCFTools.

Your helps are really valuable for me. Thanks in advance.

Best,
Jian-Feng,
