Structural and epistatic regulatory variants cause hallmark white spotting in cattle

Genotype and phenotype data underlying analyses presented in the manuscript \"Structural and epistatic regulatory variants cause hallmark white spotting in cattle\". This package contains data required to recreate analyses presented in that paper, specifically genome wide association analyses of the 'splotchy' and 'speckly' coat pattern phenotypes.

## Description of the data and file structure

Two filesets are included in this package, representing the genotypes and phenotypes used for 'Splotchy face' and 'Speckly coat' genome-wide association analyses. Both filesets consist of Plink binary format files (.bed, .bim, .fam) and a phenotype file, also directly loadable using Plink software.

Splotchy face dataset:

splotchy_phenos.txt

splotchy_GWAS_geno_set.bed

splotchy_GWAS_geno_set.bim

splotchy_GWAS_geno_set.fam

Speckly coat dataset:

speckled_phenos.txt

speckling_GWAS_geno_set.bed

speckling_GWAS_geno_set.bim

speckling_GWAS_geno_set.fam
