Sample names to be changed

From time to time we may alter the species name recorded for a sample. While this is most often just to correct a slight error in spelling or to use a taxonomic synonym that is judged to be a better choice, we also have cases where we now believe that the original record is incorrect. Since these names are embedded in many of the file contents, it is quite a lot of work to change everything in our databases. We therefore decided to only make the changes before submission for publication. In the meantime we have created this page so that everyone knows the current status.

Samples that may contain mislabeled data

A special case of names changes is a set of assemblies that were erroneously constructed from the wrong source data. Correct assemblies are now available, but not all derived data/files have yet been replaced. Scaffolds numbered in the 200000-2999999 range should not be used, with the corrected replacements being in the 3000000-3999999 range.
