Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Btau_4.0 and UMD3.1 are two distinct cattle reference genome assemblies. In our previous study using the low density BovineSNP50 array, we reported a copy number variation (CNV) analysis on Btau_4.0 with 521 animals of 21 cattle breeds, yielding 682 CNV regions with a total length of 139.8 megabases. RESULTS: In this study using the high density BovineHD SNP array, we performed high resolution CNV...
