TL;DR: The 1000 Genomes Project set out to provide a comprehensive description of common human genetic variation by applying whole-genome sequencing to a diverse set of individuals from multiple populations, and has reconstructed the genomes of 2,504 individuals from 26 populations using a combination of low-coverage whole-generation sequencing, deep exome sequencing, and dense microarray genotyping.

TL;DR: The 1000 Genomes Project as mentioned in this paper provided a comprehensive description of common human genetic variation by applying whole-genome sequencing to a diverse set of individuals from multiple populations, and reported the completion of the project, having reconstructed the genomes of 2,504 individuals from 26 populations using a combination of low-coverage whole genome sequencing, deep exome sequencing and dense microarray genotyping.

TL;DR: The SAMtools and BCFtools packages represent a unique collection of tools that have been used in numerous other software projects and countless genomic pipelines and are freely available on GitHub under the permissive MIT licence, free for both noncommercial and commercial use.

TL;DR: These sequences provide a starting point for a new era in the functional analysis of a key model organism and show that the molecular nature of functional variants and their position relative to genes vary according to the effect size of the locus.

TL;DR: A map of unbalanced SVs is constructed based on whole genome DNA sequencing data from 185 human genomes, integrating evidence from complementary SV discovery approaches with extensive experimental validations, and serves as a resource for sequencing-based association studies.
