Question

Which is a limitation of using massively parallel sequencing ?

Expert Solution
Massively Parallel Sequencing

It is a term used to describe the method of high-throughput DNA sequencing to determine the entire genomic sequence of a person or organism. It involves millions of reads, or DNA sequences, in parallel instead of processing single amplicons that generate a consensus sequence. It gives a higher resolution of every sample.
