By SNP analysis, single nucleotide differences between the sequences of 22Rv1 - associated XMRV and XMRV genomes detected in prostate cancer tissues [VP35, VP42, and VP62 (2006)-RSB-(red lollipops) are corrected by
the deep sequencing coverage data (black lollipops).
When these errors are corrected on the basis of redundant
deep sequencing coverage, the final consensus sequences of VP35, VP42, and VP62 are identical to each other and to the 22Rv1 consensus sequence, including a previously described natural polymorphism (A → G) at position 790 [23], [38].

Deep -
sequence coverage allowed identification of 263 iSNVs (73 nonsynonymous, 108 synonymous, 70 noncoding, and 12 frameshift) in the Sierra Leone patients (6).
The poor apparent
coverage was the result of high
sequence divergence of the TMAdV genome from SAdV - 18, which hindered the identification of most of the 16,524 actual
deep sequencing reads derived from TMAdV (Fig. 2B, red).
The actual
coverage achieved by
deep sequencing as determined by alignments to the fully
sequenced genome of TMAdV is much higher (red).
As is often the case for yeast, the ability to
sequence and analyze whole genomes at very
deep coverage has yielded broad insights on eukaryotic genome evolution.
