This paper introduces LongTR, a tool for accurately genotyping tandem repeats from long reads, and provides its code repository.

The paper creates a deep population reference panel of tandem repeat variation using whole genome sequencing and develops a method to genotype over 1.7 million TR loci, identifying novel eQTL signals and a phased haplotype panel for imputation.

This paper introduces a new compression method for de Bruijn graph labels, showing improved performance over existing methods on real-world datasets.
