Karen H. Miga Evan E. Eichler DOI:https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ajhg.2023.09.011 SummaryAdvances in long-read sequencing and assembly now mean that individual labs can generate phased genomes that are more accurate and more contiguous than the original human reference genome. With declining costs and increasing democratization of technology, we suggest that complete genome assemblies, where both parental haplotypes are phased...

Researchers expand and upgrade the 1000 Genomes Project resource using whole-genome sequencing
by New York Genome Center The graphical abstract of the study. Credit: Marta Byrska-Bishop (New York Genome Center) Seven years ago, the 1000 Genomes Project (1kGP) published an open-access resource based primarily on low-coverage whole-genome sequencing (WGS) data of 2,504 individuals from 26 populations representing five continental regions of the world, making it the first...
