Welcome to the Assembly Release: QA Guide 😀
Page created Fall. 2016 by Cath, Jairo, and ChrisV.
This page is currently a draft in progress.
For now, use Releasing_an_assembly instead.
When a developer is ready for a new assembly to be released, the QA team (usually an individual of) will QA and release the assembly. This wiki section exists as a guide for the assembly QA and release process.
CHANGE HAPPENS.
As time goes on, please update this section as things change!
For the UCSC Genome Browser QA Team, there are two types of genome assemblies:
- New species: Assembly for a species that is not already exisiting as a browser.
- New version for exisiting species: Assembly version for a species that already exists as a browser.
When a new or updated assembly is ready to QA, the QA team should perform the following steps, outlined in this guide.
While genbank and refseq assemblies can be claimed to be 'identical' galGal5 is a RefSeq assembly GCF_000002315.4 RefSeq assemblies often are delivered with chrMt, although not RefSeq assemblies are delivered with NCBI gene predictions, Genbank Hence, whenever possible it is preferable to use RefSeq assemblies |
