Initial Analysis of Structural Variation Detections in Cattle Using Long-Read Sequencing Methods.

ABSTRACT: Structural variations (SVs), as a great source of genetic variation, are widely distributed in the genome. SVs involve longer genomic sequences and potentially have stronger effects than SNPs, but they are not well captured by short-read sequencing owing to their size and relevance to repeats. Improved characterization of SVs can provide more advanced insight into complex traits. With the availability of long-read sequencing, it has become feasible to uncover the full range of SVs. Here, we sequenced one cattle individual using 10× Genomics (10 × G) linked read, Pacific Biosciences (PacBio) continuous long reads (CLR) and circular consensus sequencing (CCS), as well as Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT) PromethION. We evaluated the ability of various methods for SV detection. We identified
