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).
