A "control lane" is a lane of phiX library -- if I understand correctly it was required back in the "GA" days. Kind of a "tithe" to the gods of sequencing. One lane of eight set aside to honor them. (Joking...)
I was a little late to the Illumina scene. By the time we started running it was not necessary to run a control lane, although you could. So I think we've run 1 control lane in the last 3 years.
Anyone still running them?
