Abstract

Methods of forming a library of polynucleotide templates for DNA sequencing are disclosed. The methods include distributing a nucleic acid sample into different droplets in a set of emulsion droplets. The droplets into which the polynucleotide species are distributed include primers which binds to the polynucleotide species and are extended by a polymerase contained within the droplet. A set of extended primers are created simultaneously in a large number of droplets. An enriched set of extended primers are distributed into a second set of emulsion droplets containing a second primer which is extended by a polymerase contained within the second set of droplets.
