Genomic exploration of the hemiascomycetous yeasts: 2. Data generation and processing

The generation of sequencing data for the hemiascomycetous yeast random sequence tag project was performed using the procedures established at GENOSCOPE. These procedures include a series of protocols for the sequencing reactions, using infra-red labelled primers, performed on both ends of the plasmid inserts in the same reaction tube, and their analysis on automated DNA sequencers. They also include a package of computer programs aimed at detecting potential assignation errors, selecting good quality sequences and estimating their useful length.
