An official website of the United States government.

The .gov means it’s official.
Federal government websites always use a .gov or .mil domain. Before sharing sensitive information online, make sure you’re on a .gov or .mil site by inspecting your browser’s address (or “location”) bar.

This site is also protected by an SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) certificate that’s been signed by the U.S. government. The https:// means all transmitted data is encrypted — in other words, any information or browsing history that you provide is transmitted securely.

Accepted data types

We currently only accept data resulting from or complementary to arthropod genome projects. Data types that we do not accept will be referred to the Ag Data Commons (https://data.nal.usda.gov) or other appropriate repositories.

Our current policy is to make all submitted data publicly available. Manual annotations in the Apollo application are only accessible by curators of that genome project.
