Combining RNA sequencing technologies to annotate the bovine genome

Bovine genome annotation with RNaseq has been challenging due to the complexity of alternative splicing, potential for read mapping errors, high repeat content of the genome and expressed sequences, and the need to assemble full-length transcripts from short reads. Here, an abstract of an article by...

Summary:Bovine genome annotation with RNaseq has been challenging due to the complexity of alternative splicing, potential for read mapping errors, high repeat content of the genome and expressed sequences, and the need to assemble full-length transcripts from short reads. Here, an abstract of an article by Hagen et al re-annotating the bovine genome using multiple RNA sequencing technologies is presented.
