Abstract

Among various biological data, DNA sequence is doubtlessly a fundamental datum. By obtaining particular DNA sequence data and analyzing, biologists get to understand life science more precisely. This chapter is an overview of DNA sequencing technology and its data analysis methods, providing information about DNA sequencing, several different methods, and tools applied in data analysis. Both advantages and disadvantages are discussed.
