Abstract excerpt
Conventional next-generation sequencing methods, used in most gene panels, cannot separate maternally and paternally derived sequence information of distant variants. In recessive diseases, two or more equally plausible causative variants with unsolved phase information prevent accurate molecular diagnosis. In reality, close relatives might be unavailable for segregation analysis. Here, we utilized whole genome...
