  1. Four control “spike-in” DNA mixtures were created by serial dilution of one E. coli substrain (W3110) into another (Rel606). The libraries were PELE-sequenced to an average total read depth of 53,000× OPE. The rare alleles detected in the control libraries had average allele frequencies ranging from 0.20–0.42 % or 1/238-1/500 of total reads
