Concordance between blood samples and non-enriched saliva or buccal samples and between enriched saliva or buccal samples and the corresponding non-enriched samples, for common CNVs (those with >1% frequency in MSSNG parents32).

  • The ‘concordant’ columns contain the number of CNVs detected in both sample type 1 and sample type 2. The ‘unique to sample type 1’ columns contain the total number of CNVs detected in sample type 1 but not sample type 2, followed by an expression of the form Embedded Image , where X is the number of CNVs verified as correct by visual inspection and Y is the total number inspected (and analogously for the ‘unique to sample type 2’ columns). For example, 209 common deletions between 1 and 5 kb were detected in both the enriched buccal sample and the non-enriched buccal sample in the same individual, while 18 were detected only in the enriched buccal sample and 360 were detected only in the non-enriched buccal sample. Of the 37 deletions detected only in non-enriched buccal samples that were checked by visual confirmation, 36 were classified as true. HuRef blood 1 and HuRef blood 2 refer to replicates sequenced from the same blood-derived DNA sample and represent a baseline level of concordance. All other counts were aggregated across the four study participants. For individual-specific data, see online supplementary file 3.
