The blood samples of 30 male goats were collected from a core Jianchang Black (JC) goat breeding farm at Huidong County, the Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture, China. We released the animals after sampling. Genomic DNA was extracted from whole blood samples using the E.Z.N.A.® Blood DNA Kit (OMEGA BIO-TEK, Norcross, GA, USA). The paired-end libraries with an average insert size of 500 bp were constructed for each animal, and whole-genome sequencing was performed using Illumina NovaSeq 6000 instruments at Novogene (Beijing, China).
We then examined the genetic relationship between JC goats and other black breeds by using our previously generated WGS data for 41 JT goats [16 (link),17 (link)] (NCBI accession numbers: PRJNA548681 and PRJNA734084). We also downloaded WGS data for 40 YS goats [5 (link)] (NCBI accession number: PRJNA611688) and 21 Bezoar ibexes [18 (link)] (NCBI accession number: PRJEB3136).
