Abstract excerpt
Identification and analysis of clinically relevant strains of bacteria increasingly relies on whole-genome sequencing. The downstream bioinformatics steps necessary for calling variants from short-read sequences are well-established but seldom validated against haploid genomes. We devised an in silico workflow to introduce single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) and indels into bacterial reference genomes, and...
