As standard, muscle tissue samples are provided in LVL genetic sampling tubes with ethanol: https://www.lvl-technologies.com/en/sample-storage/safe-2d-tubes-engl/safe-96-tissue-collection-951. • Samples will be submitted as they are received by Cefas from externalcollaborators with the final sample submission date being February 2025. • DNA extraction (high molecular weight). • DNA QC information supplied to Cefas before library preparation. • Library preparation of samples. • ~20 samples* aimed to be sequenced at x30 depth using PacBio or applicablelong-read sequencing platform. • Raw sequencing files to be provided in fastq.gz file format, delivered on hard disk *Please note that sample numbers may vary from the above
