Abstract

We report the first accurate genome sequence for bacteriophage P22, correcting a 0.14% error rate in previously determined sequences. DNA sequencing technology is now good enough that genomes of important model systems like P22 can be sequenced with essentially 100% accuracy with minimal investment of time and resources.
