GenBank® (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov) is a comprehensive database that contains publicly available nucleotide sequences for almost 260 000 formally described species. These are obtained primarily through submissions from individual laboratories and batch large-scale sequencing projects, including whole-genome shotgun (WGS) environmental sampling projects. Most made using the web-based BankIt or standalone Sequin programs, GenBank staff assigns accession numbers upon data receipt. Daily...
