Most of the DNA sequencing data today is produced with short read sequencing. However, it is unable to resolve repeat structure even in pure culture genomes and often repetitive elements cannot be linked to their respective genomes in metagenome data. Long read nanopore sequencing has the potential to close the gaps and produce circular genome assemblies from complex systems.
