We will use the example dataset provided by vcfR.
library(vcfR)
data(vcfR_example)
The function write.vcf() can be used to create *.vcf.gz files (gzipped VCF files) from objects of class vcfR or chromR. These VCF files can be used for any downstream analysis which uses VCF files as input.
write.vcf(vcf, "test.vcf.gz")
