title: 'VCFArrow: Fast and Memory-Efficient Manipulation and Conversion of VCF Files'
version: 0.9.0
doi: 10.32614/CRAN.package.VCFArrow
abstract: Reads Variant Call Format (VCF) files into an S4 object whose genotypes
  are stored on disk as an 'Apache Arrow' dataset and loaded lazily, allowing large
  datasets to be processed with little memory. Provides functions to filter variants
  and samples, subset and merge datasets, compute summary statistics and diagnostic
  plots, write VCF files, and convert data to input formats of population genetic
  and phylogenetic software such as 'STRUCTURE', 'ADMIXTURE', 'PLINK', 'EIGENSTRAT',
  'Arlequin', 'GENEPOP', 'BayeScan', 'TreeMix', 'SNAPP' and 'adegenet'.
