Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

SOLiD, 454, and Illumina platforms rely on fundamentally different biochemical principles: sequencing-by-ligation, pyrosequencing, and sequencing-by-synthesis, respectively.

The analysis

The claim specifies that three major next-generation sequencing platforms use fundamentally different biochemical methods. Literature consistently confirms their distinct chemistries—such as pyrosequencing for 454, sequencing-by-synthesis for Illumina, and sequencing-by-ligation for SOLiD. Therefore, the claim is supported.
