Report Highlights

 next generation accounted for the largest revenue share of the short-read sequencing market in 2020, as this technology serves as a rapid and cost-effective method for the detection of genetic abnormalities. Moreover, the high throughput nature of NGS to sequence millions of genome fragments simultaneously in each run is projected to drive the adoption of NGS-based protocols.

On the other hand, Sanger sequencing method is ideal for the analysis of a single nucleotide fragment at a time. Therefore, it is a cost-effective and fast method when the number of targets is low (usually 1 to 20). However, low sensitivity and scalability of Sanger methods compared to NGS impedes the segment growth.

The consumables are to be procured at regular intervals by end users to carry out genome analysis as a consequence of higher consumption in multiple sequence runs. This has resulted in the substantial share of the segment in 2020. Instruments like genetic analyzers are used to sequence DNA or its fragments for a wide range of applications such as, Sanger sequencing, methylation, mutation analyses, and STR and SNP profiling. The advent of automated instruments has enhanced the efficiency of several genome analysis platforms available in the market.

The services segment is expected to register the fastest CAGR during the forecast period. Key players, such as Illumina and Roche offer a wide range of NGS-based short-read sequencing services at special prices to the academic researchers, thereby boosting the research in this sector.

The oncology segment accounted for a major market share in 2020 and is expected to maintain its dominance throughout the forecast period. Advanced platforms have enhanced the efficacy of sequencing of cancer genes from multiple genome sets. This allows medical specialists to understand the genetic makeup of tumor cells and advice therapeutics accordingly.

Companies such as Foundation Medicine provide actionable pan-cancer panels for NGS-based targeted sequencing that enable physicians to personalize treatment and select the most appropriate therapy based on the tumor genotype, while also enabling targeted drug development. Similarly, Myriad Genetics offers genetic testing through its myRisk product to identify people who may be at a higher risk of developing certain cancers.

Sequencing accounted for the largest revenue share of the market for short-read sequencing in 2020 as it the most important phase of the complete workflow. The penetration of the market participants in this step of the workflow adds to the revenue generated from this step.

High competition in the market has led to the launch of the novel and portable platforms that can be easily used to sequence DNA. These platforms include MiSeq, iSeq, MiniSeq, and NovaSeq, series from Illumina and IonS5, Ion Proton, and PGM from Thermo Fisher Scientific. These companies engage in research endeavors to reduce the impact of challenges associated with the application of short read protocols.

Academic research held the largest market share in 2020. Rise in research projects across the academic institutes owing to the availability of data analysis platforms at special licensing prices to the universities is expected to drive the growth. The presence of several research grants to these institutes contributes to the larger revenue generation from these end-users.

Higher usage of sequencing methodologies in research, academic workshops, and on-site  courses offered by universities is further expected to enhance the share of the academic research segment. On the other hand, the demand for advanced technologies for clinical diagnostics is regarded as a high impact rendering driver for the growth of the clinical research segment.

North America led the market for short-read sequencing with a share of 40.0%, with Europe following closely. Availability of a regulatory environment supporting the development of genomics is the key factor contributing to the estimated revenue share. In addition, presence of the key players, such as Illumina and Roche with a well-established distribution network across the region further strengthens the regional market growth.
