A Nucleotide Mixture-Based Error Correcting Short Read Chemistry

Sometimes polony-style short read sequencing seems like old news.   The underlying technology has been commercially available for over a decade.  I focus much of my attention to gains in long read technologies, though incremental improvements to read lengths or polony densities still appear.  Now in Nature Biotechnology a group from Peking University has publis hed a new twist on sequencing-by-synthesis that is claimed to offer significant improvements on read accuracy.Read more »
