Whole genome sequencing of Changthangi Pashmina gaot
Genomic DNA was extracted from the blood of 26 months old male Changthangi Pashmina goat maintained at High Mountain Arid Agricultural Research Institute (HMAARI) Stakna Leh (Ladakh). Whole genome sequencing (WGS) library was prepared with the Illumina-compatible NEXTflex Rapid DNA sequencing kit (BIOO Scientific, Austin, Texas, U.S.A.) strictly following the manufacturers guidelines. Genomic DNA was sheared using Covaris S2 sonicator (Covaris, Woburn, Massachusetts, USA) to generate approximate fragment size distribution from 200 bp to 400 bp.
