Exploring practical applications of metabarcoding with MinION to support the surveillance of plant pathogens Research Institute for Agriculture, Fisheries and Food
METAMINSURV evaluates the feasibility of MinION metabarcoding as a fast and accurate diagnostic tool for pathogen detection and identification. For several years, the world of metagenomic DNA and RNA sequencing has been accelerating and becoming more accessible. For example, very fast so-called nanopore sequencing relies on analyzing rather long strands of DNA through a very small hole called ...
