Genome Notes - Darwin Tree of Life

Genome Notes are the DNA sequences of the reference genomes of the 70,000 UK species of Britain and Ireland as they are generated by the Darwin Tree of Life Project and published on the Wellcome Open Research Gateway

Genome Notes are regularly published on the Wellcome Open Research Gateway

About

Genome Notes for each completed reference genome are published on the Tree of Life Programme’s gateway on the Wellcome Open Research website.

Data use

This sequencing centre plans on publishing the completed and annotated sequences in a peer-reviewed journal as soon as possible. Permission of the principal investigator should be obtained before publishing analyses of the sequence/open reading frames/genes on a chromosome or genome scale. See our data sharing policy.
