Hello, Here is part of a vcf generated by GATK Unified Genotyper :

The first variant is filtred by the "LowQD filter" ( QD = 1.22 < 1.5) whereas it seems to be good. Indeed : QD=QUAL/DP = 32729.73/6710 = 4.87.
When I calculate other QD for other variant in the same file, the result is good.
So, why GATK indicates a wrong QD value ? (I did the Unified Genotyper twice, and the results are the same).
Thank you for your answer. Cecile
