Method |
P.686 left column 2nd paragraph:"To overcome the limitations of next-generation sequencing error, [investigators] developed circular sequencing (CirSeq), wherein circularized genomic RNA fragments are used to generate tandem repeats that then serve as substrates for next-generation sequencing (for DNA adaptation, see ref. 4). The physical linkage of the repeats, generated by ‘rolling circle’ reverse transcription of the circular RNA template, provides sequence redundancy for a genomic fragment derived from a single individual within the virus population (Fig. 1a and Extended Data Fig. 1)." |
Comments |
P.687 left column:"[Investigators] find that mutation rates vary by more than two orders of magnitude depending on mutation type, transitions averaging 2.5 × 10^−5 to 2.6 × 10^−4 substitutions per site and transversions averaging 1.2 × 10^−6 to 1.5 × 10^−5 substitutions per site (Fig. 3)." |
