Multiple issues context February 2009 expert Genetics date February 2009 refimprove January 2010 SOLiD Sequencing by Oligonucleotide Ligation and Detection is a https en.wikipedia.org wiki DNA sequencing High throughput sequencing next generation sequencing technology developed by Life Technologies and has been commercially available since 2008. This next generation technology generates hundreds of millions to billions of small sequence reads at one time. This method should not be confused with sequencing by synthesis, a principle used by Roche 454 pyrosequencing introduced in 2005, generating millions of 200 400bp reads in 2009 , and the Solexa system now owned by Illuimina introduced in 2006, generating hundreds of millions of 50 100bp reads in 2009 These methods have reduced the cost from 0.01 base in 2004 to nearly 0.0001 base in 2006 and increased the sequencing capacity from 1,000,000 bases machine day in 2004 to more than 5,000,000,000 bases machine day in 2009.

2 Base Encoding , also called SOLiD Sequencing by Oligonucleotide Ligation and Detection , is a next generation sequencing technology developed by Applied Biosystems and has been commercially available since 2008. These technologies generate hundreds of thousands of small sequence reads at one time. Well known examples of such DNA sequencing methods include 454 pyrosequencing introduced in 2005 , the Solexa system introduced in 2006 and the SOLiD system introduced in 2007 . These methods have reduced the cost from 0.01 base in 2004 to nearly 0.0001 base in 2006 and increased the sequencing capacity from 1,000,000 bases machine day in 2004 to more than 100,000,000 bases machine day in 2006.

However, instead of using fluorescent labeled 9 mer probes that distinguish only 6 bases, 2 base encoding takes advantage of fluorescent labeled 8 mer probes that distinguish the two 3 prime most bases but can be cycled similar to the Macevicz method, thus greater than 6bp reads can be obtained 25 50bp published, ref Sequence and structural variation in a human genome uncovered by short read, massively parallel ligation sequencing using two base encoding.

DNA barcoding is a Taxonomy taxonomic method that uses a short genetic marker in an organism s DNA to identify it as belonging to a particular species . It differs from molecular phylogeny in that the main goal is not to determine classification but to identify an unknown sample in terms of a known classification. ref name Kress Although barcodes are sometimes used in an effort to identify unknown species or assess whether species should be combined or separated, ref Koch, H. 2010. Combining morphology and DNA barcoding resolves the taxonomy of Western Malagasy Liotrigona Moure, 1961.
