Join our webinar to learn how Single Molecule, Real-Time (SMRT) Sequencing on the Sequel II System enables easy and affordable generation of high-quality de novo assemblies.
 
With highly accurate individual long reads (HiFi reads) and a consensus accuracy greater than 99.999% (QV50) the Sequel II System is the tool of choice to produce reference-quality assemblies of various species representing different genome complexity and size.

Sylke Winkler, Ph.D.
Leader of the long-read platform at the DRESDEN- concept Genome Center (DcGC) and service leader at Max Planck Institute of Molecular Cell Biology and Genetics (MPI-CBG)

 

Date: Wednesday, March 25, 2020
Time:
3:00 p.m. London
4:00 p.m. Paris
5:00 p.m. Helsinki


In this webinar we will:

  • Introduce SMRT Sequencing technology, HiFi reads and their applications
  • Review the HiFi sequencing workflow established at the DRESDEN-concept genome center including preparation of long libraries and run conditions optimized for assembly of large genomes
  • Cover the advantages of using HiFi reads for sequencing nematode species
  • Learn how HiFi assembly enabled the resolution of this triploid genome
