Abstract excerpt
Studies have demonstrated that structural variants (SV) play a substantial role in the evolution of species and have an impact on Mendelian traits in the genome. However, unlike small variants (< 50 bp), it has been challenging to accurately identify and genotype SV at the population scale using short-read sequencing. Long-read sequencing technologies are becoming competitively priced and can address several of...
