Analyses of whole-genome sequences from 185 North American Thoroughbred horses, spanning 5 generations

Abstract Whole genome sequences (WGS) of 185 North American Thoroughbred horses were compared to quantify the number and frequency of variants, diversity of mitotypes, and autosomal runs of homozygosity (ROH).
