Long-read sequencing settings for efficient structural variation detection based on comprehensive evaluation

Abstract Background With the rapid development of long-read sequencing technologies, it is possible to reveal the full spectrum of genetic structural variation (SV). However, the expensive cost, finite read length and high sequencing error for long-read data greatly limit the widespread adoption of...
