Detection of copy number variants in African goats using whole genome sequence data

Detection of copy number variants in African goats using whole genome sequence data

Abstract Background Copy number variations (CNV) are a significant source of variation in the genome and are therefore essential to the understanding of genetic characterization. The aim of this study was to develop a fine-scaled copy number variation map for African goats. We used sequence data fro...
