Methods for whole genome sequencing
Methods for rapid and efficient sequencing of DNA fragment were developed in 1970s. Which were described. The chain termination DNA synthesis involving ddNTPs (dideoxynucleoside triphosphates) developed by Frederick Sanger has been preferred over other methods for genome sequencing. Automated sequencers have also been developed to accelerate the rate at which sequencing data can now be generated. More recently new automated sequencers have been introduced, which makes use of capillary separation rather than polyacrylamide gel separation of small synthesized DNA fragments.
