Multiple methods to detect copy number variants (CNV) relying on different types of data have been developed and CNV have been shown to have an impact on phenotypes of numerous traits of economic importance in cattle, such as reproduction and immunity. Further improvements in CNV detection are still needed in regard to the trade-off between high-true and low-false positive variant identification rates. Instead of improving single CNV detection methods, variants can be identified  in silico  with high confidence when multiple methods and datasets are combined. Here, CNV were identified from whole-genome sequences (WGS) and genotype array (GEN) data on 96 Holstein animals. After CNV detection, two sets of high confidence CNV regions (CNVR) were created that contained variants found in both WGS and GEN data following an animal-based (n = 52) and a population-based (n = 36) pipeline. Furthermore, the change in false positive CNV identification rates using different GEN marker densities was evaluated. The population-based approach characterized CNVR, which were more often shared among animals (average 40% more samples per CNVR) and were more often linked to putative functions (48 vs 56% of CNVR) than CNV identified with the animal-based approach. Moreover, false positive identification rates up to 22% were estimated on GEN information. Further research using larger datasets should use a population-wide approach to identify high confidence CNVR.
