Key Points
The average depth of sequencing coverage can be defined theoretically as
LN/G
, where
L
is the read length,
N
is the number of reads and
G
is the haploid genome length.
The breadth of coverage is the percentage of target bases that have been sequenced for a given number of times.
Hybrid sequencing approac...
