[ensembl-dev] Ensembl Genomes 35 is now live

[Victoria Newman]

Dear All,


We are pleased to announce that Ensembl Genomes 35 has now been released.

New and updated genomic sequences are available for all EG sub-portals, 
and updated comparative peptide analyses have been performed for Fungi, 
Metazoa, Plants, and Protists:
<http://bacteria.ensembl.org/>

  * Ensembl Bacteria <http://bacteria.ensembl.org/> now
    incorporates 2460 new genomes, as well as revised assemblies and
    annotation for 188 and 234 genomes, respectively;
  *

    Ensembl Fungi <http://fungi.ensembl.org/> now incorporates more than
    100 new genomes, includingthe /Puccinia striiformis/f.
    sp./tritici/PST-130 v1.0 assembly fromthe Joint Genome Institute,
    and provides updates to existing genomes and annotation. In
    particular, a new, manually-annotated genebuild, curated by the
    community using the WebApollo tool, has been added for/Botrytis
    cinerea/B05.10;

  *

    Ensembl Metazoa <http://metazoa.ensembl.org/>adds three new genomes,
    including that of Hessian fly. In addition,orthologue metrics have
    been calculated for all metazoan species and have been used to
    compute a set of “high-confidence
    <http://metazoa.ensembl.org/index.html>” orthologues;

  *

    Ensembl Plants <http://plants.ensembl.org/>includes a new genome
    assembly and genebuild for/Sorghum bicolor/, and an updated
    genebuild for maize. New variation data are available for bread
    wheat, as are new comparativepeptide analyses for all species;

  *

    Ensembl Protists <http://protists.ensembl.org/>contains 11 new
    genomes, along with revised genomic assemblies for more than 25
    other species. Variation data have been newly included
    for/Phaeodactylum tricornutum/, and have been updated
    for/Phytophthora infestans/and/Plasmodium falciparum/; new
    comparativepeptide analyses have also been performed.
