 Ask A Scientist - Shotgun cloning method
The whole-genome shotgun sequencing method has been made feasible by recent advances in sequencing technology and in computational methods designed to assemble contiguous stretches of DNA from a large pool of overlapping shorter fragments.
The shotgun approach uses random cloning of relatively small pieces of genomic DNA and subsequent sequencing of many clones to provide 10- to 12-fold coverage of the whole genome length.
To use the whole-genome shotgun sequencing method, Celera had to build the most powerful nongovernment supercomputing facility in the world that is specifically dedicated to sequence analysis.

Shotgun sequencing of fragments in the size range of 100 to 1,000 kb would then be relatively straight-forward.
The judgement of the genome sequencing community is that it should be possible to use a shotgun approach to sequence many genomes in the near future.
End sequencing of each insert and complete sequencing of a small subset of the inserts will allow many of the clones to be positioned relative to each other on the basis of shared sequence.
