Standards recommendations for the Earth BioGenome Project [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2022
A global international initiative, such as the Earth BioGenome Project (EBP), requires both agreement and coordination on standards to ensure that the collective effort generates rapid progress toward its goals. To this end, the EBP initiated five technical standards committees comprising volunteer members from the global genomics scientific community:

The Catalan initiative for the Earth BioGenome Project: contributing local data to global biodiversity genomics [PDF]

NAR Genomics and Bioinformatics
Abstract The Catalan Initiative for the Earth BioGenome Project (CBP) is an EBP-affiliated project network aimed at sequencing the genome of the >40 000 eukaryotic species estimated to live in the Catalan-speaking territories (Catalan Linguistic Area, CLA). These territories represent a biodiversity hotspot.
