What is the average resequencing project size?
The average project size for resequencing is approximately 30 Mb (baseline reference sequence x number of samples). This amount can be obtained by resequencing fewer samples at longer genomic coverage (e.g., 48 samples across 625 kilobases of baseline sequence) or by resequencing more samples at shorter coverage; e.g., 564 samples across 53 kilobases of baseline sequence. Baseline reference sequence is defined as the sum of the lengths of the candidate genes and/or genomic regions to be targeted in each sample. Examples of completed project sizes can be found here.
