Caxst creates genomics profile for Muhaimir camels

King Abdulaziz City for Science and Technology (KACST), in collaboration with the Camel Club, successfully assembled a genomic collection of the Mza'in breed of Arabian camels. The goal was to understand the genetic traits of this highly valuable breed, both economically and culturally. The data has been deposited into a global database and was obtained using advanced techniques for reading and assembling the genome, resulting in the identification of 17,582 genes with a completeness rate of 97.7%. This achievement contributes to supporting genetic research, enhancing camel traits, and preserving their unique characteristics for the future.
