Although SV detection by short - read sequencing is by no means a solved problem, this class of variation is missed entirely by
a SNP chip design.

One of the techniques she uses is
SNP microarrays, which enable researchers to screen a genetic sample for many
SNPs at once on specially
designed DNA «
chips».
No matter how comprehensive a
SNP chip might be, the
design still relies on known variant positions.
