Ask a Scientist: What is a Genome Equivalent?

Описание: What is a genome equivalent, and why does it matter when planning next-generation sequencing (NGS) experiments? This video describes the relationship between the number of genome equivalents in an NGS sample and the theoretical maximum coverage depth achievable for that sample. It also explains how understanding genome equivalents can help with experiment planning and increase the quality of NGS data, especially in hybrid-capture target enrichment workflows.
