Improved reference genome for the domestic horse increases assembly contiguity and composition.
Abstract: Recent advances in genomic sequencing technology and computational assembly methods have allowed scientists to improve reference genome assemblies in terms of contiguity and composition. EquCab2, a reference genome for the domestic horse, was released in 2007. Although of equal or better quality compared to other first-generation Sanger assemblies, it had many of the shortcomings common to them. In 2014, the equine genomics research community began a project to improve the reference sequence for the horse, building upon the solid foundation of EquCab2 and incorporating new short-read data, long-read data, and proximity ligation data. Here, we present EquCab3. The count of non-N bases in the incorporated chromosomes is improved from 2.33 Gb in EquCab2 to 2.41 Gb in EquCab3. Contiguity has also been improved nearly 40-fold with a contig N50 of 4.5 Mb and scaffold contiguity enhanced to where all but one of the 32 chromosomes is comprised of a single scaffold.

The research article presents an improved reference genome for domestic horses called EquCab3, which provides a more contiguous and comprehensive genetic map than the previous version, EquCab2.
Background
- The genomic reference for domestic horses, EquCab2, was introduced in 2007. Despite being of good quality, it had several limitations typically seen in first-generation Sanger assemblies.
- In 2014, the equine genomics research community initiated a project to enhance the horse’s reference sequence. Their aim was to build on the robust foundation of EquCab2 by integrating new short-read data, long-read data, and proximity ligation data.
Introduction of EquCab3
- The researchers created EquCab3, an advanced reference genome for domestic horses that provides higher assembly contiguity and composition.
- The count of non-N bases in the incorporated chromosomes in EquCab3 is 2.41 Gb, up from 2.33 Gb in EquCab2, indicating an increased genetic map coverage.
Improved Contiguity
- The researchers enhanced the contiguity nearly 40-fold, with a contig N50 of 4.5 Mb. The term “contig N50” is a statistical measure of the average length of a set of sequences (contigs).
- Scaffold contiguity was also increased to the extent that all but one of the 32 chromosomes is made up of a single scaffold. Scaffolds are sets of overlapping DNA pieces that together represent a consensus region of DNA
Significance of the Study
- This research will significantly benefit the field of equine genomics by providing a more accurate, complete, and usable genomic reference for the domestic horse.
- The enhanced genome map can be instrumental for biological research and practical applications ranging from evolutionary studies to equine health management.
