Nanopore Sequencing Resolves Elusive Long Tandem-Repeat Regions in Mitochondrial Genomes

Long non-coding, tandem-repetitive regions in mitochondrial (mt) genomes of many metazoans have been notoriously difficult to characterise accurately using conventional sequencing methods. Here, we show how the use of a third-generation (long-read) sequencing and informatic approach can overcome thi...
