 **What it does**
 
-Given a table with sample ids and minor alelles frequencies, generates boxplot per sample and 
+The MAF Boxplot tool takes a table listing heteroplasmic sites per sample and their corresponding minor allele frequency.
+It generates a boxplot of the minor allele frequencies per sample by default. 
+Optionally, it can generate  a report including the total number of heteroplasmic sites and the median and the median absolute deviation (MAD) of the minor allele frequencies per sample.

+**Formats**
 
-The graphic shows the distribution of the minor allele frequencies as a boxplot per sample. At the bottom of each plot, a count (N) is given of the number of minor alleles in the plot.
