Long runs of homozygosity are reliable genomic markers of inbreeding depression
A long-standing goal in ecological, evolutionary, and conservation genetics is to
identify genomic correlates of fitness and inbreeding depression. Over the past several
years, a growing body of theor...

Help! Is anyone else finding batch effects between whole genome sequences generated with Illumina NovaSeq6000 vs NovaSeqX?
Any suggestions or solutions would be hugely appreciated! 🙏
