Discussion

This analysis demonstrates improved genetic evaluations via low-coverage sequencing in livestock, suggesting cost-effective data solutions.

Enhanced genetic evaluations can be achieved using low-coverage sequencing by leveraging pangenome data, thus enhancing predictive accuracy.
The infrastructure can reduce storage to under 10 gigabytes for 60 million genomic variants, making analysis feasible.
With proposed haplotype arrays, marginal storage needs drop to about 200 kilobytes per individual, similar to SNP arrays.
Implementation may enable ongoing improvement in genomic representation, particularly in agricultural settings, highlighting new mutation discoveries.

Thallman et al. (2025) studied this question.
