Functional annotations of three domestic animal genomes provide vital resources for comparative and agricultural research

Functional annotations of three domestic animal genomes provide vital resources for comparative and agricultural research

In order to interpret non-coding variants, information about regulatory elements in the genome is essential. Here, the authors annotate regulatory elements in chicken, pig and cattle, and characterize conservation of these elements between species.
