Excited to share the first manuscript from my PhD in which we leveraged ultra-long Nanopore sequencing, D. melanogaster inbred lines, and a ton of manual validation to investigate the effects of long-read length on population-level structural variant (SV) calling accuracy!

Manual validation finds only ultra-long long-read sequencing enables faithful, population-level structural variant calling in Drosophila melanogaster euchromatin
The increasing accessibility of long-read sequencing and the rapid development of automated variant callers are promoting the generation of population-level structural variation data. However, the eff...
