Perspectives of using Illumina MiSeq for identification of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi [PDF]
Arbuscular mycorrhiza fungi (AMF) form one of the most common symbiosis with the majority of land plants. AMF supply the plant with various mineral elements, primarily phosphorus, and improve the water supply.

Comparison of SARS-CoV-2 sequencing using the ONT GridION and the Illumina MiSeq [PDF]
Background Over 4 million SARS-CoV-2 genomes have been sequenced globally in the past 2 years. This has been crucial in elucidating transmission chains within communities, the development of new diagnostic methods, vaccines, and antivirals.

High-quality single amplicon sequencing method for illumina MiSeq platform using pool of ‘N’ (0–10) spacer-linked target specific primers without PhiX spike-in [PDF]
Background Illumina sequencing platform requires base diversity in the initial 11 cycles for efficient cluster identification and colour matrix estimation. This limitation yields low-quality data for amplicon libraries having homogeneous base composition.

Quasispecies Analyses of the HIV-1 Near-full-length Genome with Illumina MiSeq [PDF]
Human immunodeficiency virus type-1 (HIV-1) exhibits high between-host genetic diversity and within-host heterogeneity, recognized as quasispecies. Because HIV-1 quasispecies fluctuate in terms of multiple factors, such as antiretroviral exposure and ...

A5-miseq: an updated pipeline to assemble microbial genomes from Illumina MiSeq data [PDF]
MOTIVATION Open-source bacterial genome assembly remains inaccessible to many biologists because of its complexity. Few software solutions exist that are capable of automating all steps in the process of de novo genome assembly from Illumina data ...
