Phasing, the process of determining which alleles at different loci on homologous chromosomes belong together on the same chromosome, is crucial in the diagnosis and management of autosomal recessive diseases. Advances in long-read sequencing technologies have significantly enhanced our ability to accurately determine haplotypes. This review discusses the application of low-coverage long-read sequencing, nanopore Cas9-guided long-read sequencing, and adaptive sampling in phasing, highlighting their utility in complex clinical scenarios.
