Hi there, "...While not being directly related to MIRA, it does relate to the overall field of sequencing and assembly,..." therefore I want to ask you, the specialists of sequence projects.. I (a PhD student) am working on a project that we (some professors and other PhD students) want to have some organisms' genomic and transcriptomic sequences, starting from Yeast. Around the globe, who/which company would you recommend? The criteria for me would be the price/reliability. I guess for each project we will be having one 454 and one of other type of seq. technology runs, so that we can have some hybrid assemblies. It would be more than good if one can comment on the mixture of independent technologies (sequencing tech.), in respect to what kind of projects would yield higher quality with which kind of sequencers. Any help is deeply appreciated. Best, Visam
