HIGH-THROUGHPUT GENOTYPING BY SEQUENCING LOW AMOUNTS OF GENETIC MATERIAL

The present invention provides a method for analysis of target nucleic acids which are present in low amounts. In particular, the method comprises the following steps: i. providing a sample wherein target nucleic acids are present in a low amount, ii. generating a reduced representation library of said target nucleic acids by a method comprising: ? fragmenting said target nucleic acids; ligating adaptors to said fragments; and selecting a subset of said adaptor-ligated fragments, iii. massively parallel sequencing said reduced representation library, and iv. identifying variants in said target nucleic acids by analyzing results obtained by said sequencing.
