Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A finished sequence meets all the criteria described - minimal gaps, correct order, and low error rate. A draft sequence may have more gaps and may require further refinement, while shotgun and clone by clone sequencing methods refer to different approaches to generating the sequence data rather than the quality of the final sequence output. PCR sequencing is not a commonly used term in genomics and does not accurately capture the level of completeness and accuracy described in the question.
