StanfordNIHWhat genotyping misses
Genotyping arrays read pre-selected positions. They can't detect what they weren't designed to look for. WGS reads everything.
98% of your DNA is non-coding
Genotyping arrays skip the regulatory regions that control when and how genes are expressed. WGS reads everything — including enhancers, promoters, and introns that affect your health.
Rare variants that genotyping arrays miss
Arrays only check pre-selected positions. If your variant isn't on the chip, it's invisible. WGS captures every single nucleotide, including rare variants that could explain unexplained conditions.
Structural variants and copy number changes
Deletions, duplications, and inversions that affect entire gene regions. Genotyping can't detect these. WGS can — and they account for a significant portion of genetic disease.
Complete pharmacogenomics coverage
Genotyping only checks common CYP variants. WGS captures rare CYP2D6, CYP2C19, and CYP3A4 variants that can dramatically affect your drug metabolism but aren't on standard arrays.

Genotyping vs. whole genome sequencing
23andMe and AncestryDNA use genotyping arrays. Here's what that means for your data.
DNA coverage
Genotyping: ~650,000 SNPs (0.02%)
WGS: 3.2 billion base pairs (100%)
Non-coding regions
Genotyping: Not covered
WGS: Fully sequenced
Rare variants
Genotyping: Missed if not on array
WGS: All detected
Structural variants
Genotyping: Not detected
WGS: Detected (deletions, duplications, inversions)
Pharmacogenomics
Genotyping: Partial (common variants only)
WGS: Complete (including rare CYP variants)
Future-proof
Genotyping: Fixed array — can't reanalyze
WGS: Full data — reanalyze as science advances
Your report covers health risks, pharmacogenomics, nutrition, carrier screening, and more

Why people choose WGS
I did 23andMe for ancestry, then realized the health data was barely scratching the surface. WGS was a completely different experience.

Using my DNA, health reports and LLMs I built a personalized supplement stack. But you need the full genome for that, not just SNP chips.
— Reddit user
The best part about WGS is it's future-proof. As science discovers new associations, you can reanalyze without paying for another test.
