The Targeted Re-sequencing Group sequences specific regions of genomes. Regions are targeted by several different methods including PCR as well as hybrid selection techniques. Targeted re-sequencing is applied as a discovery tool, where specific regions of genomes can be sequenced and analyzed for de novo discovery of sequence variation within the target regions. These techniques can also be employed more specifically to validate or screen for recurrence of previously identified putative variation within a genome or genomes. Using these techniques enables the study of specific regions of genomes in a cost efficient manner.
