Bos taurus (Jun 2014) cow (UMD_3.1.1/bosTau8) genome assembly

The files listed below are formatted for visualization in the Integrated Genome Browser, available from BioViz.org.

Annotation (bed) and alignment (psl) files (if available) were downloaded from the UCSC Genome Bioinformatics Table Browser. Each file is named for its corresponding table in the UCSC Genome database. See the annots.xml meta-data file in this directory for details.

Files with extension .gz were compressed and indexed using bgzip and tabix tools from htslib.org.

The file named B_taurus_Jun_2014.2bit contains sequence data and is from the UCSC Genome Bioinformatics Web site. To convert a .2bit to fasta, use twoBitToFa. The file genome.txt lists sequences and their sizes and was made from B_taurus_Jun_2014.2bit sequence file using twoBitInfo.

Both twoBitInfo and twoBitToFa are available from http://hgdownload.cse.ucsc.edu/admin/exe/.
