Abstract
Disclosed herein include systems, methods, compositions, and kits for methods of assigning sequencing data to partitions. There are provided, in some embodiments, methods of associating sequencing data and phenotypic data of single cells. There are provided, in some embodiments, methods of reducing noise in sequencing data. Disclosed herein include partition indexing oligonucleotides comprising a partition indexing sequence. The partition indexing oligonucleotides can be associated with partitions. Partition indexing oligonucleotides situated within the same partition can comprise the same partition indexing sequence. Partition indexing oligonucleotides situated within different partitions comprise different partition indexing sequences.
