NextSV: a meta-caller for structural variants from low-coverage long-read sequencing data

Abstract Background Structural variants (SVs) in human genomes are implicated in a variety of human diseases. Long-read sequencing delivers much longer read lengths than short-read sequencing and may greatly improve SV detection. However, due to the relatively high cost of long-read sequencing, it i...
