| Important features | 1. DIAL (De novo Identification of Alleles), for identifying single-base substitutions between two closely related genomes without the help of a reference genome.
2. The method works even when the depth of coverage is insufficient for de novo assembly, and it can be extended to determine small insertions/deletions.
3. The use of DIAL to identify nucleotide differences among transcriptome sequences. |
