Nine animals were selected in 9 breeds to represent goat diversity in France
The selection of 9 breeds (Alpine, Boer, Creole, Fossés, Poitevine, Provençale, Pyrénéenne, Rove and Saanen) was mainly based on Oget et al., doi: 10.1111/age.12752. High molecular weight DNA was extracted from blood and submitted to whole genome sequencing. Long-read sequencing technologies were used in order to genearate assemblies. CCS, Pacbio high quality reads + Parental Illumina for haplotyping were used for the Alpine breed. For the other breeds, CLR = Pacbio raw reads or ONT data were generated.
