Page last updated 2023-05-16. The cost table itself is in a downloadable spreadsheet, not in the page text, so no finding quotes a number; the page is cited for the definition of cost per genome (3,000 Mb, 30-fold coverage, production costs only).

Findings

NHGRI cost-per-genome definition.
the assumed genome size was 3,000 Mb (i.e., the size of a human genome)
