Disclosed are methods for identifying nucleic acid sequences which are of different abundances in different nucleic acid source populations, e.g. differentially expressed genes or genomic variations among individuals or populations of individuals. In one embodiment, probes derived from the source nucleic acid populations are derivatized with a terminal sample ID (SID) sequence characteristic of that population. Upon competitive hybridization of the probes to a reference or index nucleic acid library containing all the sequences in the populations being compared, the SID tags remain single stranded, and those from the different sources are then annealed to one another. Unhybridized (remainder) SID sequences are then quantified. By labeling such remainder SID sequences with a fluorescent dye, FACS sorting of beads containing the hybridized probes can be carried out. The signal ratio upon which such sorting is based is enhanced compared to competitive hybridization using labeled probes without SID sequences.

A divide-and-conquer global alignment algorithm for finding highly similar candidates of a sequence in database is disclosed. The invention gives a divide-and-conquer algorithm called Kart, that separates the given sequence into smaller pieces whose alignment can be carried out independently, and their concatenated alignment constitutes the global alignment of the entire sequence. Kart could be viewed as aligning multiple seeds simultaneously in parallel. We illustrate the idea using the read mapping of Next-generation sequencing (NGS) as an example. NGS provides a great opportunity to investigate genome-wide variation at nucleotide resolution. Due to the huge amount of data, NGS applications require very fast alignment algorithms. The invention can process long reads as fast as short reads. Furthermore, it can tolerate much higher error rates. The experiments show that Kart spends much less time on longer reads than most aligners and still produce reliable alignments.
