Brief
Variation detection refers to the process of obtaining a large amount of genetic variation information, such as single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP), insertions and deletions (InDel), structural variations (SV) and copy number variations (CNV), by sequencing and difference analysis of the genome of an individual or population of a species through high-throughput sequencing technology, which can be used to develop molecular markers to establish genetic polymorphism library, and lay a data foundation for revealing evolutionary relationships and mining functional genes.
