- Record type is always 706 for this File Format
- ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 codes (3 characters, capital letters)
- Breed of evaluation (3 characters, capital letters, BSW, GUE, HOL, JER, RDC, SIM)
- Breed of animal (3 characters, capital letters)
- Alpha-numerical, Interbull standard, always 12 characters long
UUID, one for every uploaded genotype sequence. Additional information about generation of UUID can be found at https://wiki.interbull.org/public/uuid?action=print
Genotyping laboratory, among the ones listed in the "Laboratories" table available in the GenoEx-GDE System Data page https://genoex.org/display. If the laboratory is not listed in the table, a request should be sent to GenoEx@slu.se
Sample ID. If unknown, use the word Missing as Sample ID
Array identifier, one of the listed in the "SNP Arrays" table ("Code" column) available in the GenoEx-GDE System Data page https://genoex.org/display.
- n is equal to the number of SNPs reported in the stem of the Array identifier
coded SNP values written as a continuous string.
Acceptable values depend on the Illumina coded allele values, according to the following:
BB→0 AB→1 AA→2 ‘unknown’→5

706 upload
In order to upload genomic data to GenoEx-GDE database, the file in 706 format has to be zipped. Zip format is the only one accepted by GenoEx-GDE database for the upload. Zip file can be created using the support program gxprep.py as described here: https://interbull.org/ib/gde_gxprep_manual(#zip_example) If the User creates the zip file without using the support program gxprep.py, please make sure that the file containing genotypes in 706 format and compressed in the zip archive has name genotypes.csv.
