Performance of non-WGA-based DNA library preparation methods. a Read composition of raw data. b Library conversion rate. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, Wilcoxon tests. c Duplication rate of sequins. d JSD between the expected compositions of sequins and measured profiles including sequins and microbial contaminants (left) or measured sequins profiles (right). e JSD between the measured profiles of experimental replicates. f Evaluation of methods based on three crucial parameters. Fidelity of designated reads was defined as 1 subtracted by JSD between the expected composition of sequins and measured sequins profiles, and reproducibility was defined as 1 subtracted by JSD between the measured profiles of experimental replicates
