Variant call data from whole genome sequencing of Holstein cattle with recurrent clinical mastitis

This dataset contains variant call format (VCF) files derived from whole genome resequencing of Holstein cattle.The dataset includes 50 animals, comprising mastitis-susceptible cows (n=25), defined as individuals with three or more episodes of clinical mastitis within a single lactation, and healthy control cows (n=25) with no mastitis history over two consecutive lactations.Whole genome sequencing was performed using the Illumina NovaSeq 6000 platform, and variants were identified using standard bioinformatics pipelines. After quality filtering, high-confidence SNPs were obtained and used for genome-wide association analysis.These VCF files represent the minimal dataset required to reproduce the findings reported in the associated manuscript.Raw sequencing data are available in the European Variation Archive (EVA) under accession PRJEB88141:https://www.ebi.ac.uk/eva/?eva-study=PRJEB88141
