Abstract: The present disclosure relates to compositions and methods for nucleic acid sequencing, and specifically, at least in certain aspects, provides methods and compositions for enhancing the efficacy, throughput and/or yield of known long-range sequencing platforms, by providing chimeric arrays of input sequences. Such arrays of component nucleic acid sequence elements can be prepared via methods that minimize introduction of bias. The application of the current methods to obtain isoform sequencing information, e.g., from patient samples is specifically also provided, as are methods for mitochondrial lineage tracing that employ the instant chimeric amplicon sequencing processes. Methods and systems for array nucleic acid sequence processing and interpretation are also provided.
