Comprehensive benchmarking of somatic single-nucleotide variant and indel detection at ultra-low allele fractions using short- and long-read data
2025-10-14
Abstract excerpt
Mosaic mutations in normal tissues occur at low variant allele fractions (VAFs), complicating detection. To benchmark strategies, the SMaHT Network created a cell-line mixture (1:49) and produced ultra-deep whole-genome sequencing using short and long reads (five centers, 180–500× each). We assembled a reference of 44,008 mosaic SNVs and 2,059 Indels, cross-validation between platforms to expose limits of short-re...
