Abstract
Sequencing methods for sequencing populations of nucleic acid molecules in which sequencing reads of amplicons are grouped into families according to the nucleic acid molecule of origin by partitioning, sample indexes and information from the sequencing reads, such as start and end points. The methods described herein provide many advantages over other sequencing analysis methods, including the identification of sequencing reads deriving from the same nucleic acid in the original sample while minimizing the number of aliquots that are processed.
