Evaluation of saliva as a source of accurate whole-genome and microbiome sequencing data

2020-11-16

Abstract excerpt

This study sets out to establish the suitability of saliva-based whole-genome sequencing (WGS) through a comparison against blood-based WGS. To fully appraise the observed differences, we developed a novel technique of pseudo-replicates. We also investigated the potential of characterising individual salivary microbiomes from non-human DNA fragments found in saliva. We observed the majority of discordant genotype...
