Instead of covaris G-tube use syringe with needle for framentation.

Unfortunately covaris G-tubes have too small opening for getting DNA bigger than <10kbp, and fast flow generates a lot of shotr fragments.
for hitting 20-49kbp fargments range I recommend using a 5...

You can do custom trimming (based on different profile of errors between R1&R2 (to take into account the higher chance of presence of the erroneous/random data in the end of the R2 read)).

Novaseq ws Nextseq 500?

Dear GenoMax,

How does the quality (raw error rates) of the 2x150 runs compare with nextseq 500 2x150?

Are they quite similar given the 2 channel imaging?
And averaging 0.5%-2% errors per...

First you need to detect by how much the ends are overlapping.
Than you can save non-overlapping portion + a single copy of the overlapping area sequence to a file.

Lightbulb Use Illumina 2x250 or 2x300, not 2x150 in de novo!

Please use Illumina 2x250 or 2x300 in any de novo appication! (in addition to the pacbio).

It means 1-2 runs (2x250 or 2x300) using MiSeq or 1/2 of the HiSeq 2500 RR 2x250.

Usually it gives...

Since the GATK HaplotypeCaller function involves reassembly of the reads, it may pull in the reads from the different areas for the repetitive loci.

There may be multiple causes for the problem: ...

Maybe one of your sequencing adapters had degraded?
Also check the thumbnail images from the run's tmp folder.

If both adapters at the end of the...

I had tried R1:319 I1:6 R2:300 and I must admit that as you approach 300 mark the quality decay (error rates increase) is quite exponential in it's nature :-(, so the reported quality at R1@319bp was...

This can help a lot in understanding what...
