The Illumina MiSeq can generate up to 22 million reads per run — ideal for metagenomics applications requiring high read numbers.
The NextSeq 2000 offers flexibility in sequencing yields from 100M to 1.2B clusters — suitable for deep amplicon and shotgun metagenomic approaches. Focusing on the NovaSeq 6000's capabilities, it is likely this platform will become a central tool for high-throughput genomic studies at GSL.
