Target enrichment nanopore sequencing with adaptive sampling can determine the structure of the small supernumerary marker chromosomes


Structural analysis of small supernumerary marker chromosomes (sSMCs) has revealed many sSMCs carrying complex chromosome structures with multiple fragments. However, structural analysis of sSMCs by short-read sequencing is inefficient because most sSMCs are mosaic and consist of a small region of the involved chromosome. In this study, we applied adaptive sampling using long-nanopore sequencing reads to efficiently enrich the target region and determine the structure of sSMCs.
