Repository title: The domesticated horse (Equus caballus) is a one-toed, hoofed mammal, and one of the most iconic species distinguished by its unique history, diverse breeds, and significant role in human society.
The domesticated horse (Equus caballus) is a one-toed, hoofed mammal, and one of the most iconic species distinguished by its unique history, diverse breeds, and significant role in human society. This sample (mEquCab1) is from a male Arabian horse bred at Al Shaqab Equestrian Center, in Qatar. Samples were also obtained from the parents (mother mEquCab3 and father mEquCab2). These samples were provided by Farooq Omar Al-Ajli (Katara Biodiversity Genomes Program), to create trio-based high-quality assemblies of the maternal and paternal haplotypes for the Vertebrate Genomes Project (VGP) and Qatar Biodiversity Genomes Project (QBGP). Sequencing was done at the Vertebrate Genomes Lab (VGL) at Rockefeller University, led by Olivier Fedrigo and Erich D. Jarvis. Genome assembly was conducted at Sidra Medicine by Farooq Omar Al-Ajli and Khalid A. Fakhro in collaboration with VGL.
The accession and its GCC connection are verified. Registration alone does not establish that the broader research programme remains active.
