Abstract
The publication of the human genome sequence is the cumulative result of nearly five decades of international collaborations. The Human Genome Project’s (HGP) sequencing strategy is a clone-by-clone or hierarchical strategy, first producing genetic and physical maps of the human genome (the first 5-year plan, 1993–1998), and then pinning the sequences to the genome map (the second 5-year plan, 1998–2003).
