Massively parallel DNA sequencing: the new frontier in biogeography

摘要: The advent of Sanger sequencing represented a scientific break-through that greatly advanced biogeographic studies. However, this technology has several limitations have hampered more studies in the field. development novel techniques which fully exploit potential Massively Parallel Sequencing (MPS) to deliver sequence data at fraction cost promises revolutionize Approaches like Restriction-site Associated DNA (RADseq) and UltraConserved Element (UCE) enable collection unprecedented amounts for multi-locus population genetics phylogenetics respectively, turn can be used analysis. Here we review those other methods related MPS, provide examples how they tropical Atlantic biogeography.
