Annotation

Metazoa displaying genes linked to the assembly with accession GCA_963082655.1.

Genomic assembly deposited to the INSDC by Wellcome Sanger Institute. Genome annotation performed by Ensembl as part of the partnership with the Darwin Tree of Life (DToL) project.

Genome annotation was obtained using re-engineered versions of our Gene Annotation System Aken et al. with refinements implemented for non-vertebrate genomic annotation.
