Abstract excerpt
Sequencing cohorts with long-read technology is crucial to understand the impact of structural variants (SVs) on complex traits. Here, we obtain 4.86 terabases of HiFi reads with an average read N50 of 16.3 Kb from 120 Bos taurus taurus bulls, yielding a mean coverage depth of 13.5-fold. We genotype 23.8 M small variants (SNPs and short INDELs) and 79.3 k SVs to perform association testing with molecular...
