Neglected Genomes Databases
To promote genetic, genomic and developmental resaerch on organisms for which complete genome sequences are not yet available, and to provide comparative analyses for those with completed genomes, we and others are sequencing large numbers of expresswed sequence tags (ESTs) drom a wide range of species.
Here we provide access to our "Neglected Genomes" PartiGene databases, representing analyses of EST data generated both here in Edinburgh, in collaboration with other colleagues worldwide, and data accessed via GenBank.
