About this ebook

What Is Whole Genome Sequencing

The process of determining the entirety, or nearly the entirety, of the DNA sequence of an organism's genome at a single time is referred to as whole genome sequencing (WGS), full genome sequencing, complete genome sequencing, or entire genome sequencing. Other names for this process include entire genome sequencing, complete genome sequencing, and full genome sequencing. In order to do this, the chromosomal DNA of an organism, as well as the DNA found in the mitochondria and, in the case of plants, the chloroplasts, must be sequenced.
