Abstract Background The majority of the 2 million bovine single nucleotide polymorphisms SNPs currently available in dbSNP have been identified in a single breed Hereford cattle during the bovine genome project. In an attempt to evaluate the variance of a second breed we have produced a whole genome sequence at low coverage of a single Fleckvieh bull. Results We generated 24 gigabases of sequence mainly using 36-bp paired-end reads resulting in an average sequence depth. This coverage was sufficient to identify million SNPs 82 of which were previously unknown and 1 1 5 000 small indels. A comparison with the genotypes of the same animal generated on a 50 k oligonucleotide .
