Strategies for high throughput identification and detection of polymorphisms
First Claim
1. A method for identifying one or more polymorphisms, comprising:
- (a) ligating sequencing adapters carrying a 3′
-T overhang to at least a first library of amplified fragments comprising sequences of a first nucleic acid sample and a second library of amplified fragments comprising sequences of a second nucleic acid sample to obtain first and second libraries of sequencing adapter-ligated fragments;
(b) combining the first and second libraries of sequencing adapter-ligated fragments;
(c) sequencing at least a portion of the combined libraries to obtain sequences;
(d) aligning the sequences obtained in step (c) to obtain an alignment; and
(e) determining one or more polymorphisms between the first and second nucleic acid samples in the alignment of step (d).

Abstract
The invention relates to a method for the high throughput identification of single nucleotide polymorphisms by performing a complexity reduction on two or more samples to yield two or more libraries, sequencing at least part of the libraries, aligning the identified sequences and determining any putative single nucleotide polymorphisms, confirming any putative single nucleotide polymorphism, generating detection probes for the confirmed single nucleotide polymorphisms, subjection a test sample to the same complexity reduction to provide a test library and screen the test library for the presence or absence of the single nucleotide polymorphisms using the detection probe.

12. A method for identifying one or more nucleotide sequence variants, comprising:
-
(a) performing a complexity reduction on one or more nucleic acid samples of interest to provide at least a first amplified fragment comprising a first identifier sequence in addition to sample sequences and a second amplified fragment comprising a second identifier sequence in addition to sample sequences, wherein the first identifier sequence is different from the second identifier sequence and distinguishes the first amplified fragment from the second amplified fragment, (b) ligating sequencing adapters carrying a 3′
