Editing Gene duplication (section)

===Next generation sequencing===
Gene duplications can also be identified through the use of next-generation sequencing platforms.  The simplest means to identify duplications in genomic resequencing data is through the use of paired-end sequencing reads.  Tandem duplications are indicated by sequencing read pairs which map in abnormal orientations.  Through a combination of increased sequence coverage and abnormal mapping orientation, it is possible to identify duplications in genomic sequencing data.
