Annotation

Q. Where can I get a gff file of the annotations for my favourite species?

• A. Darwin tree of life @ensembl holds all annotations produced for the DToL project. This provides a convenient way of accessing all DToL Ensembl data. Alternatively you can also find all DToL species and their associated files on the Ensembl Rapid Release site.

Q. I have unpublished transcriptomic or other data for a species you are sequencing. The data isn’t public yet because I haven’t published the study, how can I share our data with you to improve the genome annotation?

• A. We can only work with publicly archived data that has been submitted to the ENA or SRA, and the data need to be publicly available ahead of the annotation process beginning. We do value extra annotation data, so if you plan to make the data public, please contact us on helpdesk@ensembl.org to make us aware of it.
