Answer #1

Illumina sequencing

PacBio sequencing

Illumina is also called Solexa sequencing technique

PacBio sequencing refers to Pacific Bioscience as developed by them

It is based on sequencing by synthesis

It involves single-molecule real-time sequencing (SMRT).

They have shorter read length. Average of 50-200 bp

It has long read length. Approximately of 20kb length.

High accuracy of about 90%

Extremely high accuracy of 99.99%

Error rate is lower, about 0.1 to 10%

Error rate is higher about 10-15%
