Whole genome sequencing

Sequence an organism's entire genome to find genes, mutations, antimicrobial resistance, virulence factors and evolutionary relationships. Short reads (Illumina) and long reads (PacBio, Nanopore) are available for complete, high-quality assemblies.

Frequently asked questions

Short reads or long reads — which do I need?

Short reads (Illumina) are cost-effective for variant calling and resequencing. Long reads (PacBio, Nanopore) give more complete assemblies of new genomes. Tell us your goal and we will advise.

How much DNA do I need?

See the sample requirements on this page. High-molecular-weight DNA is needed for long-read sequencing.

Do you help with genome assembly and analysis?

Yes. Assembly and annotation are included for bacterial, phage, fungal, viral and mitochondrial genomes, and variant calling for exome and resequencing projects. Bacterial genomes also include antimicrobial-resistance and CRISPR analysis.
