Assembly and annotation for the Phaeoexplorer project. Assembly and annotation for the Phaeoexplorer project

This project provides the genome assemblies and annotations generated for the Phaeoexplorer project. The Phaeoexplorer project aims to generate transcriptome data and annotated genome assemblies for a broad range of brown algal species at different phylogenetic distances from the model brown alga Ectocarpus in order to address a number of key questions about the biology and evolutionary history of this poorly characterized but important group of marine eukaryotes. The knowledge generated by the project will be exploited to develop new techniques and products for the macroalgal mariculture and processing industries. The data is also available at: https://phaeoexplorer.sb-roscoff.fr/
