Bovine genome assembly by Cattle Genome Sequencing International Consortium

The Cattle Genome Sequencing International Consortium, led by the Baylor College of Medicine, originally sequenced the Bos taurus genome at 6x coverage using a whole genome shotgun (WGS) strategy. The initial assembly (Btau_4.2) was later replaced by newer versions by incorporating high quality finished data, where available (Btau_4.6.1). The latest version takes the UMD 3.1 assembly contigs and scaffolds and incorporates ~19x Pacific Biosciences long-read data using the PBJelly method (English, Richards et al. 2012).
