A new method for long-read sequencing of animal mitochondrial genomes: application to the identification of equine mitochondrial DNA variants

Abstract Background Mitochondrial DNA is remarkably polymorphic. This is why animal geneticists survey mitochondrial genomes variations for fundamental and applied purposes. We present here an approach to sequence whole mitochondrial genomes using nanopore long-read sequencing. Our method relies on...
