Genome resequencing

^ http://edamontology.org/operation_3923


Laboratory experiment to identify the differences between a specific genome (of an individual) and a reference genome (developed typically from many thousands of individuals). WGS re-sequencing is used as golden standard to detect variations compared to a given reference genome, including small variants (SNP and InDels) as well as larger genome re-organisations (CNVs, translocations, etc.). ows re-sequencing of complete genomes of any given organism with high resolution and high accuracy.

Synonyms: Resequencing, WGR, Amplicon-based sequencing, Amplicon panels, Amplicon sequencing, Highly targeted resequencing, Whole genome resequencing, WGRS

Ultra-deep sequencing, Amplicon sequencing is the ultra-deep sequencing of PCR products (amplicons), usually for the purpose of efficient genetic variant identification and characterisation in specific genomic regions.
