Versioning

Many genomic data types undergo versioning (minor and major). If requested, we will update your datasets to the latest version, provided they fit the criteria for each data type (listed above). We will generally only host a single version of your genome assembly, and only allow curation on one version of a genome assembly at a time. Superceded files will still be available under the “Legacy” section of the data downloads for your project.

Note that we do not provide mapping services of existing annotations to a re-assembled genome. We can provide some assistance if the assembly changes are minor (e.g. removal of contaminated scaffolds, breaking individual scaffolds into contigs). Contact us if you have questions about this.
