Abstract excerpt
MOTIVATION: Next-generation sequencing (NGS) technologies are decisive for discovering disease-causing variants, although their cost limits their utility in a clinical setting. A cost-mitigating alternative is an extremely low coverage whole-genome sequencing (XLC-WGS). We investigated its use to identify causal variants within a multi-generational pedigree of individuals with retinitis pigmentosa (RP). Causing...
