Abstract
A genetic analysis of Japanese Black cattle using short reads and guided by the reference genome from Western breeds would miss the structural variation and/or other unique characteristics of Japanese Black cattle. To overcome this difficulty, a de novo genome assembly independent from the reference genome is required. This chapter describes the technical developments, with respect to both experimental and bioinformatics procedures, including the use of short and long reads, required for de novo genome assembly of Japanese Black cattle.
