Dr. Sally M Chambers, Marie Selby Botanical Gardens Next generation sequencing technologies have rapidly developed over the past decade, providing new avenues for scientists working on non-model organisms to study patterns at the genome level. Techniques can be used to drastically simplify a complex genome and multiplex samples, which help make these sequencing platforms more […]
