Contaminant DNA in bacterial sequencing experiments is a major source of false genetic variability
[Background] Contaminant DNA is a well-known confounding factor in molecular biology and in genomic repositories. Strikingly, analysis workflows for whole-genome sequencing (WGS) data commonly do not account for errors potentially introduced by contamination, which could lead to the wrong assessment...

| Sumario: | [Background] Contaminant DNA is a well-known confounding factor in molecular biology and in genomic repositories. Strikingly, analysis workflows for whole-genome sequencing (WGS) data commonly do not account for errors potentially introduced by contamination, which could lead to the wrong assessment of allele frequency both in basic and clinical research. |
