Accurate Multiplex Polony Sequencing of an Evolved Bacterial Genome
Tóm tắt
We describe a DNA sequencing technology in which a commonly available, inexpensive epifluorescence microscope is converted to rapid nonelectrophoretic DNA sequencing automation. We apply this technology to resequence an evolved strain of
