Which of the following is NOT an advantage of NGS sequencing over Sanger sequencing for sequencing genomes? A) NGS sequencing can sequence millions of templates at one time. B) For most platforms, NGS records the sequence as nucleotides are incorporated. C) NGS sequencing library preparation does not require generating BAC (or vector-based) clone libraries. D) NGS sequencing is cheaper than Sanger sequencing.

Which of these is important for preparing templates for Next Generation Sequencing? - DNA from tissue - Breaking DNA up into smaller fragments - Checking the quality and quantity of the fragment library - All of the above An ideal sequencing machine would provide us with: - Sequences of longer read length - Accurate sequences - Sequences at a high throughput - All of the above Next generation sequencing set up requires: - Library preparation - Extensive bioinformatics analysis - Both 1 and 2 are correct - Both 1 and 2 are wrong Improvements on sequencing methods benefit(s) of: - Lowering cost by sequencing smaller molecules - Rising speed by sequencing larger molecules
