Genotyping skips insertions (INS)

[hellebaa]

I am genotyping using a callset that includes insertions (INS). These loci are skipped in the genotyping step. I see in the documentation that Svtools supports the category mobile element insertion (MEI), which I haven't seen for other tools such as lumpy, Delly etc. Is MEI equivalent to INS, i.e. I could just recode my callset vcf accordingly? I appreciate any input on this, thanks.
