Implications of Genetic Distance to Reference and De Novo Genome Assembly for Clinical Genomics in Africans
D Shriner, A Adeyemo, CN Rotimi - medRxiv, 2020 - medrxiv.org
In clinical genomics, variant calling from short-read sequencing data typically relies on a pan-
genomic, universal human reference sequence. A major limitation of this approach is that …
