    Hi Tommy Phannareth,

    Thanks for writing into the GATK forum and for your patience about this issue you are seeing. I am wondering if a majority of your reads are getting filtered out? How many reads do you have in your input bam?

    Here's where I see that information:

    11:18:24.703 INFO  HaplotypeCaller - 151718 read(s) filtered by: MappingQualityReadFilter
    0 read(s) filtered by: MappingQualityAvailableReadFilter
    0 read(s) filtered by: MappedReadFilter
    0 read(s) filtered by: NotSecondaryAlignmentReadFilter
    0 read(s) filtered by: NotDuplicateReadFilter
    0 read(s) filtered by: PassesVendorQualityCheckReadFilter
    0 read(s) filtered by: NonZeroReferenceLengthAlignmentReadFilter
    94657 read(s) filtered by: GoodCigarReadFilter
    0 read(s) filtered by: WellformedReadFilter
    246375 total reads filtered

    Let me know if this is the case. If not, we can continue to look into possible issues. Another helpful piece to see is if you look at the input bam in IGV and if you pick out some test sites where you would expect to see variance. Then, we can track what is going on at those sites.

    Let me know,

    Genevieve
