Abstract
Tandem repeat copy number variations (TR-CNVs), structural variations (SVs), and short indels have been responsible for many diseases and traits, but no tools exist to distinguish and detect these variants. In this study, we developed a computational tool, TRsv, to distinguish and detect TR-CNVs, SVs, and short indels using long reads. In evaluation with simulated and real datasets, TRsv outperformed existing tools for detection of TR-CNVs and indels and performed equally well for detection of SVs. We demonstrated genome-wide detection of TR-CNVs, including variants associated with gene expression, disease, and quantitative traits, using 160 long-read whole genome sequencing data and TRsv.

期刊介绍:
Genome Biology stands as a premier platform for exceptional research across all domains of biology and biomedicine, explored through a genomic and post-genomic lens.
With an impressive impact factor of 12.3 (2022),* the journal secures its position as the 3rd-ranked research journal in the Genetics and Heredity category and the 2nd-ranked research journal in the Biotechnology and Applied Microbiology category by Thomson Reuters. Notably, Genome Biology holds the distinction of being the highest-ranked open-access journal in this category.
Our dedicated team of highly trained in-house Editors collaborates closely with our esteemed Editorial Board of international experts, ensuring the journal remains on the forefront of scientific advances and community standards. Regular engagement with researchers at conferences and institute visits underscores our commitment to staying abreast of the latest developments in the field.
