When Less is More: "Slicing" Sequencing Data Improves Read Decoding Accuracy and De Novo Assembly Quality

Stefano Lonardi, Hamid Mirebrahim, Steve Wanamaker, Matthew Alpert, Gianfranco Ciardo, Denisa Duma, Timothy J Close

This paper shows that ultra-deep sequencing data can degrade decoding and assembly quality, and proposes slicing data to improve results in BAC clone decoding and de novo assembly.
