Hello,
Is that the shotgun sequencing method produces long reads?
thank you for your reply.

Shotgun sequencing is a strategy that can be used with conventional or NG sequencing.
Depending on definition of "long" such reads (> 1 kb) can be produced by Pacific Biosciences and Oxford Nanopore sequencer. Illumina also has a new synthetic long read technology. -
thank you for your reply.
I want to know what is the difference between Shotgun sequencing, Sanger sequencing, PacBio sequencing, sequencing illumnia?
thank youComment

Data variability is still an issue in sequencing technologies despite the advances in reproducibility and accuracy of these platforms. But the problem does not originate in the sequencing itself, but in the previous steps, before the sample reaches the sequencer.
The first step is collection, followed by preservation and sample preparation for analysis. Most scientists overlook those steps, but not being careful might just be skewing the experiment’s results.
