Whole Genome Bisulphite Sequencing Using the Illumina Hiseq X System

The Illumina HiSeq X platform has helped to reduce the cost of whole genome sequencing substantially, but its application for bisulphite sequencing is not straightforward. We describe the optimization of a library preparation and sequencing approach that maximizes the yield and quality of sequencing, and the elimination of a previously unrecognized artefact affecting several percent of bisulphite sequencing reads.
