Genome Database

What genome database does EzBioCloud use?

The EzBioCloud Genome Identification database contains a vast amount of microbial genomes, including bacteria and archaea. The database is organized into different taxonomic levels, including domain, phylum, class, order, family, genus, species, and subspecies. As of now, the database contains over 20,000 species, including validated names, genomospecies, and genome groups. The majority of the species belong to the bacterial domain, with a smaller number belonging to the archaeal domain.

Valid Name

Species in the database that have valid scientific names.

Genomospecies

A genomospecies is a species that cannot be reliably distinguished from other species based on phenotypic characteristics, but can be differentiated based on their genomic content.

Genome Group

Sets of closely related genomes that cannot be confidently assigned to a specific species.
