Bighorn sheep T2T genome assembly reveals differences in immune genes: a potential cause of high morbidity due to respiratory pathogens

This paper presents a telomere-to-telomere genome assembly of bighorn sheep, revealing immune gene differences that may explain their susceptibility to respiratory pathogens.

An integrated multi-tissue atlas of epigenomic landscapes and regulatory elements in the bovine genome

The paper constructs a bovine epigenomic atlas to annotate regulatory elements and decode the regulatory syntax of the cattle genome, aiding in fine-mapping GWAS loci for complex traits.

Functional genomics of cattle through integration of multi-omics data

The paper improves bovine genome annotation by integrating multi-omics data to identify novel transcripts and gene functions, and constructs a trait similarity network.

Genomic regions associated with Mycoplasma ovipneumoniae presence in nasal secretions of domestic sheep.

The paper identifies genomic regions associated with Mycoplasma ovipneumoniae presence in sheep nasal secretions using genome-wide association analysis.

Global analysis of transcription start sites in the new ovine reference genome (Oar rambouillet v1.0)

The paper performs a global analysis of transcription start sites (TSS) in the ovine reference genome using CAGE sequencing, identifying novel TSS and validating them with bisulfite sequencing.
