The genome size is 1.2 Gb with 32 chromosomes and the N50 is 38.91 Mb. Approximately 576.37 Mb, accounting for 48.93% of the genome, was identified as repeats.
The current reference assembly for the domestic horse Equus caballus was published in 2009. This assembly used Sanger (first-generation) sequencing along with bacterial artificial chromosomes (BACs) t
These data have been produced as part of the CCGP. Reference genomes were generated with PacBio long read data and Dovetail OmniC libraries, and Illumina sequencing at a University of California Seque
