In conjunction with the significant preliminary mapping and sequencing progress contributed by Jean Weissenbach's group at GenoScope in Envry, France, Agencourt provided another 2 million double-ended whole genome shotgun sequencing reads required to unveil the mystery of this genome.
The results, presented at the GenoFisk meeting in Oslo, Norway, include a high-quality genome assembly and preliminary annotation of the fish species, completed using only whole genome shotgun and paired-end data generated by the Genome Sequencer FLX System from 454 Life Sciences, a Roche Company (SWX:RO) (SWX:ROG) (Pink Sheets: RHHBY).
Venter and his team of researchers decoded the genome of the first free-living organism, the bacterium Haemophilus influenzae, using his new whole genome shotgun technique.
