Ultra-low input single tube linked-read library method enables short-read NGS systems to generate highly accurate and economical long-range sequencing information for de novo genome assembly and haplotype phasing

The paper introduces a low-cost, high-accuracy method for generating long-range sequencing data using short-read NGS systems, enabling de novo genome assembly and haplotype phasing with minimal DNA input.

Quantifying and understanding well-to-well contamination in microbiome research

This paper quantifies well-to-well contamination in microbiome studies, showing it occurs mainly during DNA extraction and affects low-biomass samples, with implications for data interpretation.
