Nucleotide sequence databases

Task 1

Task 2

Selected organism: Galeopterus variegatus (Sunda flying lemur)

For this task I used NCBI Genome Database to find 7 different keys and to describe it, using The DDBJ/ENA/GenBank Feature Table Definition page from INSDC.

Table 1. Global stats and other information required for Task 1.

Amount of sequencing projects and samples	1 genome sequencing and assembly project and 1 genome RefSeq project are available, 3 samples in each of them from Sunda flying lemurs
BIOSAMPLE ID	SAMN01758971

Task 3

Project	Transcriptomes of 1000 Fishes
Aim	"To generate genome-wide transcriptome sequences for 1,000 diverse species of fishes using RNA-seq. This resource will greatly advance the study of fish biology, eventually contributing towards global fish biodiversity conservation efforts and sustainable utilization of natural resources. In addition, the project will promote development of new technologies and softwares for transcriptome sequencing, data analysis, annotation, and storage."
Launch date	by BGI-Shenzhen in November 2013
Country	China
Amount of seqeunced genomes (for 2017)	158
