WHOLE GENOME SEQUENCING: IDENTIFY UNKNOWN GENES
Author
Kong, Xinyi
Abstract
Whole genome sequencing (WGS), also known as full genome sequencing, complete genome sequencing, or entire genome sequencing, is the process of determining the entirety, or nearly the entirety, of the DNA sequence of an organism's genome at a single time. This entails sequencing all of an organism's chromosomal DNA as well as DNA contained in the mitochondria and, for plants, in the chloroplast. In this research, I used a bioinformatic program called Geneious to perform whole genome sequencing and used this technique to identify an unknown gene.
