Abstract
The invention generally relates to capturing, amplifying, and sequencing nucleic acids. In certain embodiments, copies of the sense and antisense strands of a duplex template nucleic acid are captured using linked capture probes and multiple binding and extension steps to improve specificity over traditional single binding target capture techniques. Methods of seeding sequencing clusters with sense and antisense strands of a target nucleic acid are also disclosed including identifying the strands using sense-specific barcodes and confirming base calls using two sense-specific sequencing reads. Linked adapters may be used to increase adapter ligation selectively or efficiency and yield.
