I have 2 VCF files from running the GATK Joint Genotyping workflow on two different groups of samples.

I would like to filter out all the variants that are common to both VCF files and output a new VCF file only containing variants that are unique to the second group of samples. Is there a gatk or other tool that can easily do this?

Thank you.

Creates intersections, unions and complements of VCF files. Depending on the options, the program can output records from one (or more) files which have (or do not have) corresponding records with the same position in the other files.
