Germline Variant Call Accuracy in Whole Genome Sequence Data from Canine Formalin-Fixed Paraffin-Embedded Tissue Samples
This pilot study demonstrates the feasibility of using FFPE samples from dogs for whole-genome sequencing and the detection of germline variants. Using FFPE samples in the analysis of suspected inherited diseases in domestic animals may represent a valuable approach in veterinary genetics if no other samples are available.
