Antibiotic resistance is a problem for human health, and consequently, its study had been
traditionally focused toward its impact for the success of treating human infections in …

Complete datasets of genetic variants are key to biodiversity genomic studies. Long-read
sequencing technologies allow the routine assembly of highly contiguous, haplotype …

Cattle domestication and the complex histories of East Asian cattle breeds warrant further
investigation. Through analysing the genomes of 49 modern breeds and eight East Asian …

Genome-wide analysis of 67 ancient Near Eastern cattle, Bos taurus, remains reveals
regional variation that has since been obscured by admixture in modern populations …

Species of the Bos genus, including taurine cattle, zebu, gayal, gaur, banteng, yak, wisent
and bison, have been domesticated at least four times and have been an important source …

Yak has been subject to natural selection, human domestication and interspecific
introgression during its evolution. However, genetic variants favored by each of these …

Despite only 8% of cattle being found in Europe, European breeds dominate current genetic
resources. This adversely impacts cattle research in other important global cattle breeds …

Genetic improvement of cattle around the globe has been, and will continue to be, an
important driver of animal agriculture sustainability. There are several reproductive and …

Inbred animals were historically chosen for genome analysis to circumvent assembly issues
caused by haplotype variation but this resulted in a composite of the two genomes. Here we …

Chinese indicine cattle harbor a much higher genetic diversity compared with other
domestic cattle, but their genome architecture remains uninvestigated. Using PacBio HiFi …
