Summary of WGS performancebetween sequencing platforms
Transcriptome
Sample source: UHRR
The Genome mapping ratio on the MGISEQ-2000 platform is about 2% higher than the N sequencing platform, and the Gene mapping ratio is about 6% higher than the B library prep kiton the N sequencing platform.
The MGISEQ-2000 platform showed similar results as of the N sequencing platform on Gene number and Transcript number.
Random comparison of reads between sequencing platforms
The randomness of the MGISEQ-2000 platform and the N sequencing platform of the B library prep kitis comparable, and the coverage at the 3′ end is better than that of the A library prep kiton the N sequencing platform.
