#ERGAReads | Earth BioGenome Project 🌍 aims to generate high-quality reference #genomes across the tree of life 🌍 This new paper outlines evolving standards for sample acquisition & processing and explores key challenges for the future of the project. 🔗 doi.org/10.1093/gigasc… #sampling



Last week celebrated World Oceans Day. 🌊 We'd like to pay homage to the genome sequences produced by the Darwin Tree of Life project... so enjoy this blog post featuring artwork by Petra Korlevic to learn more about creates in (or near) the water 🧵⤵️ sangerinstitute.blog/2024/10/14/dra…

Hundreds of scientists across Europe helped shape #BGE by nominating #species for #genome sequencing! 🧬 From algae to fungi, the selection process ensured a truly diverse reference genome set. 🔗 Learn more: biodiversitygenomics.eu/2025/06/10/com… European Reference Genome Atlas European Research Executive Agency Horizon Europe 🇪🇺


🌍 Collaboration is key to the success of global science! The first Regional Node of the Earth BioGenome Project, European Reference Genome Atlas European Reference Genome Atlas, is leading the way in Europe—coordinating efforts to genome sequence Europe’s incredible biodiversity. 🧬 🌍 Are you

🐟Ever heard of a tongue-biting isopod? 🐟 This gruesome marine parasite latches onto a fish’s tongue, severs the blood supply, and replaces it—becoming a living, functioning tongue! 😱 Now, thanks to the Darwin Tree of Life project, the genome of this wild creature has been
