    I have run a devo transcriptome assembly using 454 on a fish with a similar sized genome (slightly larger than human genome). I ran 4 individuals in a whole 454 FLX run.
    i used 3' targeted cDNA (however I seem to remember reading that for some reason this isnt the ideal protocol when using 454...?).
    If memory serves I got around 30,000 contigs when aligning to a closely related reference transcriptome, and a bunch more via de novo assembly. From the 30, 000 contigs there were ~50K SNPs/indels identified....around 9K of these suited my criteria for a high quality putative SNP.

    In theory 3' target cDNAs should increase yield of homologous fragments between individuals, and a full 454 plate seemed to give us good representation of the transcriptome.

    If the genome is 3E9 bp (similar to Homo sapiens)), then the transcriptome will be at least 3E6 bp. I'm not sure even 1/2 plate will have enough yield to cover your transcriptome, as there will be > 1000x difference between some transcript yields. You may need to use Illumina or Proton instead.

    454 pyrosequencing

    Hi Dear, I want to run a de novo transcriptome project by Roche 454 with a species of fish cDNA library that its genome size is about 3*10^9, which kind of picotiter plate region is better for me and why? 1/2 or 1/4 or 1/8 ?

    Quality Control Essentials for Next-Generation Sequencing Workflows
    by seqadmin




    Like all molecular biology applications, next-generation sequencing (NGS) workflows require diligent quality control (QC) measures to ensure accurate and reproducible results. Proper QC begins at nucleic acid extraction and continues all the way through to data analysis. This article outlines the key QC steps in an NGS workflow, along with the commonly used tools and techniques.
