FAIRsharing record for: Access to Biological Collection Data DNA extension

This FAIRsharing record describes: ABCDDNA is a theme specific extension for ABCD (Access to Biological Collections Data) created to facilitate storage and exchange of data related to DNA collection units, such as DNA extraction specifics, DNA quality parameters, and data characterising products of downstream applications, along with the relation to the analysed voucher specimen. ABCDDNA is an XML Schema extension to ABCD 2.06, which offers only a rudimentary set of DNA-specific data ("Sequences"). Although a stable standard, it will be replaced by the Global Genome Biodiversity Network (GGBN) Data Standard specification, which currently has a draft status.
