Illumina MiSeq Dual-barcoded Two-step PCR Amplicon Sequencing Protocol v1
Background Information High throughput amplicon sequencing is an extremely sensitive technique. The lab environment is full of airborne bacterial and fungal cells as well as bacterial and fungal genomic DNA from cultures, and so extreme care must be taken to keep reactions uncontaminated and in preventing cross-contamination.

Massively parallel multiplex DNA sequencing for specimen identification using an Illumina MiSeq platform [PDF]
AbstractGenetic information is a valuable component of biosystematics, especially specimen identification through the use of species-specific DNA barcodes. Although many genomics applications have shifted to High-Throughput Sequencing (HTS) or Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) technologies, sample identification (e.g., via DNA barcoding) is still most ...

Spaced seeds improve k-mer-based metagenomic classification [PDF]
Metagenomics is a powerful approach to study genetic content of environmental samples that has been strongly promoted by NGS technologies. To cope with massive data involved in modern metagenomic projects, recent tools [4, 39] rely on the analysis of k ...

Characterization of 13 microsatellite markers for Calochortus gunnisonii (Liliaceae) from Illumina MiSeq sequencing [PDF]
Premise of the study:Microsatellite primers were designed for Calochortus gunnisonii (Liliaceae), a montane lily species of the central and southern Rocky Mountains, using next‐generation DNA sequencing. The markers will be used to investigate population structure, genetic diversity, and demographic history.Methods and Results:Thirteen polymorphic ...

Comparative next-generation sequencing of adeno-associated virus inverted terminal repeats
The inverted terminal repeats (ITRs) of adeno-associated virus (AAV) are notoriously difficult to sequence owing to their high GC-content (70%) and palindromic sequences that result in the formation of a very stable, 125 bp long, T-shaped hairpin ...
