  amplicon:
    text: amplicon
    description: A library that has been enriched for a single specific region of
      a genome (e.g. a specific gene) through targeted amplification.
  enriched:
    text: enriched
    description: A library that has been enriched for DNA from typically large portions
      to the entirety of a genome, through array or in-solution 'capture' with genome
      array baits/probes.
  shotgun:
    text: shotgun
    description: An unselected library that has undergone no type of targeted amplification/enrichment
      for a particular genomic region or genome, i.e., random sequencing of any nucleic
      acid molecule contained in a genomic library.
