Types of transcriptomic analyses and their steps. The choice of sequencing protocol amongst the six available workflows affects the type, characteristics, and quantity of data generated. Only direct RNA sequencing allows epitranscriptomic studies, but SMRT direct RNA sequencing is a custom technique that is not fully supported. The remaining non-exclusive applications are isoform detection, quantification, and differential analysis. The dashed lines in arrows represent upstream processes to transcriptomics
