The long read sequencing market was valued at US$ 1,101.15 million in 2020 and it is projected to reach US$ 5,334.68 million by 2028; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 22.3% during 2021–2028. 

The long read sequencing is a DNA sequencing technique. It offers numerous distinct advantages than next-generation sequencing technologies such as more precisely sequence DNA containing the same sections of DNA repeated within the genome. Many adults aged 60 years and above suffer from two or more chronic illnesses. Genes play a role in chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, obesity, RA, Alzheimer's disease (AD), and depression, according to twin research. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), about 6 out of 10 individuals in the US are affected by at least one chronic disease, as well as 4 out of 10 are suffering from two or more chronic diseases. Furthermore, cancer is primarily caused by genomic errors. Researchers have analyzed cancer genomes using a variety of rapidly evolving sequencing technologies in order to better understand cancer cells' molecular status and expose their vulnerabilities such as driver mutations or gene expression. The researchers were able to recognize and classify new forms of cancerous mutations using long-read technologies, including complex structural variants in haplotype resolution. In recent years, several long read sequencing technologies have been developed and used. For example, Pacific Biosciences developed SMRT sequencing, which is one of the long read methods (PacBio). Long read sequencing is becoming more common, and cancer studies based on long read data are growing and advancing in order to decode complex cancer genomes.

Market Insights: Advantages of Long Read Sequencing Drives Long Read Sequencing Market

Long-read technologies are overcoming early limitations of accuracy and throughput and mounting their application in the fields of genomics. Long read sequencing or third-generation sequencing offers several advantages over short-read sequencing. While short-read sequencers such as Illumina’s HiSeq, NovaSeq, NextSeq, and MiSeq instruments, BGI’s MGISEQ and BGISEQ models; or Thermo Fisher’s Ion Torrent sequencers produce reads of up to 600 bases, long read sequencing technologies regularly generate reads over 10 kb Further, long reads can improve de novo assembly, mapping certainty, transcript isoform identification, and detection of structural variants. Also, long read sequencing of native molecules, i.e., DNA and RNA eliminates amplification bias while preserving base modifications. With continuing progress in accuracy, throughput, and cost reduction, these capabilities have begun to make long read sequencing an option for a broad range of applications in genomics for model and non-model organisms.
