Update in progress: note to all users. FAIRsharing is always available for you to search and discover databases, standards and data policies. However, for producers of these resources who maintain or wish to add new records, please note that editing is disabled until September while we migrate our data to our new, improved system. Read our blog post or get in touch with us for more details.

21/09/21 Ongoing Network Maintenance: From the 21st of September FAIRsharing may be offline at various point during the day; we apologise for any inconvenience.

NCBI Viral Genomes Resource

Recommended

General Information

NCBI Viral Genomes Resource is a collection of virus genomic sequences that provides curated sequence data, related information and tools. It includes all complete viral genome sequences deposited in the International Nucleotide Sequence Database Collaboration (INSDC) databases, i.e. DDBJ, EMBL, and GenBank. Data are organized by viral taxonomy, and reference sequence records (RefSeqs) from one or more genome sequences for each viral species. After a RefSeq has been created for a species, other complete genomes from that same species are indexed as neighbors to the RefSeq.
